What Are Dual-Seal Compostable Mailer Bags?
Dual-seal compostable mailer bags are shipping bags designed with two peel-and-seal adhesive strips.
The first strip is used for the original shipment.
The second strip allows the same outer mailer to be closed again when the customer needs to return or exchange the contents.
This makes dual-seal mailers particularly useful for:
- e-commerce returns;
- apparel and fashion orders;
- subscription programs;
- reverse-logistics workflows;
- fulfillment operations; and
- brands looking to reduce the need for a second return mailer.

Materials & Compostability Documentation
ORIZON dual-seal mailer bags can be manufactured using PLA / PBAT-based compostable material formulations selected according to the required mailer specification and target application.
The use of compostable materials does not automatically mean that the finished mailer is certified compostable.
Finished-product certification applicability may depend on factors including:
- product type;
- material formulation;
- film thickness;
- adhesive structure;
- colour and masterbatch;
- printing and ink;
- additives;
- closure components; and
- finished-product construction.
Important TÜV AUSTRIA Scope Notice
ORIZON’s current OK compost INDUSTRIAL and OK compost HOME certificates by TÜV AUSTRIA state the following Product Types:
“Bags for collection of biodegradable refuse”
“Shopping bags (check-out bags)”
Dual-seal compostable mailer bags and return mailers should not automatically be assumed to fall within these TÜV AUSTRIA certificate scopes.
Certification applicability must be confirmed against the applicable current certificate, product classification and final finished-product specification before certification claims or conformity marks are used.
BPI Certification for U.S. Projects
ORIZON’s current BPI Online Product Catalog includes specific listed Courier Bags, Resealable Bags and Self-Adhesive Bags.
However, a dual-seal return mailer should not automatically be treated as covered by these listings solely because it uses a similar adhesive or mailer structure.
The proposed dimensions, thickness, material formulation, colour, printing, adhesive structure, release liner and other finished-product components should be reviewed against the applicable current BPI-listed product or SKU before BPI certification claims or the BPI Certification Mark are used.
Dual-Seal Closure Design
The dual-seal structure is designed around two separate adhesive closures.
First Seal — Outbound Shipping
Used during initial packing and fulfillment.
Second Seal — Customer Return
Used after the original mailer has been opened when the contents need to be returned.
Buyers may evaluate:
- adhesive type;
- strip width;
- strip positioning;
- initial tack;
- holding strength;
- release liner;
- opening behaviour;
- storage stability; and
- return-use requirements.
The adhesive and release-liner specification should be reviewed together with the mailer dimensions, film thickness, flap design and intended outbound and return-shipping application.
