HERO PACKAGING
DID YOU KNOW: We now use 100% biodegradable packaging to ship your products? These mailers are home compostable and can be used to feed the worms and create nutritious fertiliser. 🌱 Join us on our mission to save the world!
HEROPACKS are made from home-compostable materials, mainly corn starch and PBAT (a compostable ingredient which bonds the renewable ingredients together). These will completely break down within 90-120 days in a home-compostable environment, or can be taken to a composting facility. In contrast, traditional plastic shipping mailers take 400 years or more to break down, and still release deadly methane gas into the atmosphere.
To compost them at home, it’s best to remove any labels, cut them up and place in your compost bin as “brown” materials.
Sure, home compostables are fantastic - but without a home composter, what are you supposed to do? Fortunately, composting is on the rise and there are several awesome options for you:

NB Some of our products are sent directly to our customers by the manufacturer, i.e. t-shirts. In those instances, we cannot control the mailer the manufacturer uses to pack and send your order.
