“Today, we’re expanding availability of the Framework Laptop to a little more of the world. We’re bringing the Framework Marketplace to the UK and Europe soon. Laptop orders ship directly from Taiwan, a short truck ride away from our factory, and we’re setting up a service and fulfillment center in Germany to enable quicker shipping on future Marketplace orders. Meanwhile in the US and Canada, you can now combine a Framework Laptop and Marketplace items like Orange and Grey Bezels and new keyboards within a single order to get free shipping, with all of it shipping fully carbon-offset within a few days from inventory in New Jersey.”
“Local language keyboards (including English International in ANSI for the Netherlands) and compatible power adapters are also available for every new country we enter. To make ordering easier in the Netherlands, we also enabled support for iDeal and SEPA payment methods in addition to credit and debit cards, and we’ll be bringing this to the rest of Europe soon. If you’re outside of the regions we currently support, you can help us prioritize our international rollout by registering your interest on our locales page.”
