Sustainability:
Creatifik recognises its environmental impact thus is committed to promoting sustainability in our design and within our working processes. As a result we recycle all paper, plastics and metals within our studio. We also reduce energy consumption by being mindful of equipment use, promote on-line project management with our clients, avoid unnecessary journeys, use public transport often, seek to work with ISO14011, FSC, PEFC and VOC certified companies, and ensure our staff are aware of this position. These policies and further refinements are reviewed annually.

Quotes and Prices:
When asked our prices for certain services or a quote for a complete project Creatifik aims to provide the most comprehensive information with respect to other time pressures. We are in regular communication with our third party services and will provide you with an accurate quote. Where possible we will compare at least two of our third party services to get you the best price for your design project.

Charges and Invoicing:
Even though this will be discussed during the initial meeting Creatifik reserves the right to charge an hourly rate or set a complete price for its design services. The price of a set design package remains amendable if the design time increases beyond the original set duration. We also reserve the right to ask for a 40% deposit of the total at the start of the design project. All projects require our contract to be signed before any final design work begins, see our downloads page for a copy of our contract.
