Plant-based mailers that break down after delivery
Custom compostable mailers are padded or flat shipping bags made from plant-based film or paper rather than conventional plastic. They suit apparel, accessories, printed goods, and subscription items that do not need a rigid shipper, and they keep the parcel light so postage stays low. The peel-and-seal closure keeps the contents secure in transit, and a second adhesive strip can be specified for returns.
Printing and finishes
Artwork prints on both sides of the mailer. One- or two-colour water-based print keeps unit costs down on larger runs and suits a natural kraft look, while full-colour digital print handles detailed artwork and short runs. Certification marks, disposal guidance, and a care line can all sit on the back panel, which helps customers sort the mailer correctly. Every order includes a free digital proof before production.
Choosing sizes and disposal claims
Compostable mailers are sized by inside width and length, so measure your product flat, add its thickness, and leave room for the seal. Share the heaviest item you ship and whether parcels go through automated sortation. Disposal matters as much as the material: home compostable and industrially compostable are different claims, so tell us which standard you need and we will quote a film that matches it, along with the wording you can legally print. If the product is fragile or rigid, compare a corrugated mailer box or a padded bubble mailer instead.

FAQ
Quick answers before you quote.
What are compostable mailers made from?
Plant-based films and papers rather than conventional plastic. The exact material depends on the disposal standard you need, so tell us whether you are aiming for home compostable or industrially compostable and we will quote a film that matches.
Are compostable and biodegradable the same thing?
No. Compostable materials break down into non-toxic matter under defined composting conditions within a set time. Biodegradable is a looser term with no timeframe. Only print the claim your material is certified for.
What size compostable mailer do I need?
Measure your product flat, add its thickness, and leave room for the seal. Share the heaviest item you ship so we can match the film weight to it.
Can I print my logo on both sides?
Yes. Use one- or two-colour water-based print for lower unit costs on larger runs, or full-colour digital print for detailed artwork. You approve a free digital proof before production.
When should I use a mailer box instead?
Choose a corrugated mailer box when the product is fragile or rigid, needs inserts, or when the unboxing is part of your brand experience. Compostable mailers are best for soft goods where low weight and low-impact disposal matter.
