Shipping is more than just getting a package from Point A to Point B — it’s a vital part of your brand experience. And in modern eCommerce, customers expect packaging that is not only branded but also environmentally responsible.
This is where private label plastic mailers come in. With advances in material technology, plastic mailers can now be both durable and eco-friendly, giving dropshipping brands the perfect balance of protection, sustainability, and branding.
In this guide, we’ll explore how private label mailers work, their eco-friendly options, and how BSDropshipping helps you customize them for your brand.
What Are Private Label Plastic Mailers?
Private label plastic mailers are custom-branded shipping bags typically made from polyethylene (PE) or biodegradable materials. Unlike generic grey mailers, private label versions include:
Your logo
Brand colors
Typography
Custom printing
Optional messages (“Thank You,” “Eco-Friendly Packaging,” etc.)
Reinforced adhesives for security
BSDropshipping offers custom plastic mailers as part of our private label packaging program, allowing you to ship products in packaging that reflects your brand’s personality and values.
Why Plastic Mailers Are Still Popular in Dropshipping
Despite the push for sustainability, plastic mailers remain widely used because they are:
Lightweight (reduces shipping cost)
Waterproof
Tear-resistant
Cost-efficient
Flexible for multiple product types
However, the shift now is toward eco-friendly versions, and modern private label mailers offer that option without sacrificing durability.
Eco-Friendly Options for Private Label Plastic Mailers
Today’s plastic mailers can be designed with sustainability at the core. BSDropshipping provides several green alternatives that align with eco-conscious branding.
1. Recyclable Plastic Mailers
These are made from LDPE or HDPE materials that can be fully recycled after use.
Why they’re eco-friendly:
Reduces landfill waste
Supports circular recycling systems
Uses less energy than producing new plastic
Brands using recyclable mailers communicate responsibility while maintaining affordable shipping costs.
2. Biodegradable Plastic Mailers
Biodegradable mailers break down naturally under certain conditions.
Benefits include:
Faster decomposition than traditional plastic
Lower environmental footprint
Great for brands with “green” positioning
These mailers can also be branded with phrases like “Eco-Friendly Packaging,” emphasizing your sustainability efforts.
3. Compostable Mailers (Cornstarch or PLA Material)
These are the most eco-friendly option available.
They’re made from natural, plant-based materials and decompose in home or industrial composting environments.
Ideal for brands wanting to position themselves as earth-first, sustainable, or zero-waste.
4. Recycled Plastic Mailers
These are created from post-consumer materials — giving plastic a second life.
Advantages:
Reduces reliance on virgin materials
Gives waste a new purpose
Available in thick, durable formats for extra protection
BSDropshipping offers recycled mailers suitable for clothing, accessories, and lightweight products.
