Covid-19 FAQ

Hi, Designer Editions here.

As we navigate this uncertain time, we want you to know we’re doing all we can to keep our staff and customers safe. Designer Editions is open, and we’re delivering as usual. We’ve put new measures in place to keep our warehouse staff safe, including heightened hygiene processes, split shifts, and social distancing, and we’ve introduced no-contact delivery.

All of our teams who can work from home are now doing so, including Customer Services. You can continue to contact them via email as usual. We’ll keep this page updated with the latest information.
