Product Description
Yellow Shipping Mailers
Finally! Our yellow shipping mailers have arrived! This is our latest certified Home-Compostable HEROPACK.
PLEASE NOTE: Total shelf life of our mailers is 9-12 months.
It looks and feels like plastic, but it's not. Not even close. It is a 100% home-compostable shipping mailer and is made from 70-80% PBAT (a co-polymer that is completely compostable) and 20-30% PLA (which is a fancy way of saying cornstarch).
In a commercial compostable environment, it will break-down within 90 days. At home, it may take up to 120 days.
Please note: These mailers are translucent. We highly recommend packaging your products in a bag or wrapping that is opaque so the products can't be seen through the packaging.
The translucency of the HEROPACK material is due to the nature of the renewable ingredients used. There are strict rules to be in compliance with the Australian home-compostable certification from ABA, and this is the most important factor for us. If you are looking for no transparency, we recommend our black compostable mailers.
Another important thing to remember: Over time, because of the soy based ink, the colour of these mailers can run and transfer so please make sure to always use something to cover your products (like our INNERHERO bags) before putting it in the HEROPACK.
Design features:
- Small HEROPACK logo in black on the front
- Double adhesive strip so your customers can re-use the bag
- Premium matte finish to differentiate our compostable mailers from glossy plastic mailers.
- You can apply your existing shipping labels or write directly onto the mailer.
- Waterproof to keep shipments safe from rain.
- Medium Transparency*
- Dimensions of the mailer now mentioned on the back for ease of re-ordering.
- Are you looking for customised mailers with your own brand logo? Check out our Custom Mailer page.
- Our compostable mailers are tough and durable.

Certifications:
- Australia: Home Compostable (AS5810) and Commercially Compostable (AS4736)
- International: Home Compostable (EN13432) and Commercially Compostable (EN13432)
Please note: If you're shipping any products which have sharp corners or edges (such as shoe boxes), it's best to trial a couple of shipments with our mailers to ensure everything performs as expected. In order to remain certified home-compostable, our mailers can't be too thick like evil plastic mailers, so sharp corners could sometimes cause damage. Other than that, HEROPACK mailers have a high weight load rating and can withstand all the hard knocks during the shipping process.
Product shelf life: as our compostable mailers are made using renewable ingredients, they have a shelf life of approximately 9-12 months when kept in cool and dry conditions, out of direct sunlight. This should be considered when ordering mailers in bulk. We recommend ordering for a 3-6 month period of shipments.
Hero Packaging's HEROPACK yellow shipping bags are both high-quality and eco-friendly. They're 100% compostable and made of 70-80% PBAT (compostable co-polymer) and 20-30% PLA (cornstarch). These materials are what make the mailers so durable, while also ensuring that they'll break down within 90-120 days.
Why Choose Hero Packaging Mailers?
Hero Packaging Mailers help you to make a good impression with your customers. Unlike cheap, glossy, plastic mailers, Hero Packaging mailers have a premium matte finish. Their overall design is attractive yet subtle, with only a small, grey HEROPACK logo printed against the solid yellow backdrop.
Worried you'll be shipping your products during harsh Australian weather? Hero Packaging Mailers are totally waterproof, keeping your shipments safe from the rain. You can also apply your own shipping labels or write on them directly to ensure they get where you need them to go!
Choose the Perfect Size for Your Product
Our yellow shipping mailers come in 5 sizes, all of which are similar to the sizes used by Australia Post. This includes the small (19cmx26cm), the small-medium (22cmx34cm), and the large 3kg (36cmx48cm). We currently offer packs in quantities of 25, 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1000. To order in larger quantities and gain more customisation options, we recommend using our custom compostable mailers form.
Unsure which size or colour to choose? If you'd like to try out our different mailers before purchasing one of our larger packs, you're welcome to order our HEROPACK sampler. The sampler contains 1 mailer of each colour and size, giving you the variety you need to determine which mailer suits your product best.

The shipping carrier assigned to your shipment will contact you using the details on your order when placed. If import duties are not paid by the recipient as required, the shipment will be diverted to commercial composting facilities for disposal and cannot be returned.

Due to the renewable ingredients used and shelf life of our mailers, no change-of-mind returns can be accepted under any circumstances after this period. We have a strict returns process to ensure all returns are received correctly and can be re-sold to other customers. Change of mind returns are also subject to handling and restocking fees and the original shipping cost being deducted from any store credit. For custom orders which have not been printed yet, a sampling/setup fee between $15-$50 will also be deducted from any change of mind returns for custom orders. If a custom order has already been printed, no change of mind returns will be accepted. If you need to return your product(s), please contact us for further instructions.
Product issues: Sometimes things don't go to plan. Rest assured we will ensure a fast resolution which can include product replacements, store credits and refunds. If you have any product issues whatsoever, please contact us for further instructions. Generally, we will request photos or a video of any issues to help provide the fastest resolution.
Pre-Order Information:
Occasionally, our products could be out of stock and move to a pre-order listing. This will be noted when purchasing the products and will also be noted in your order confirmation alongside any pre-order items.
No Split Shipments: Please note that if pre-order items are purchased together with regular items which are in stock, the entire order will be on hold until the pre-order stock is available for shipping (we cannot partially ship orders). If you wish to place a pre-order as well as purchase available items, it's best to purchase separately to avoid delays in shipping your order.
You will receive a shipping tracking notification as soon as your order has been dispatched. If you have any questions, please message us for assistance.
