Hey HEROTAPE EXPRESS, Welcome to the HERO PACK! Instead of packing your express orders with plastic express tape, ensure your express orders are shipped fast with our PAPER EXPRESS TAPE! 

Our newest packaging HEROTAPE EXPRESS is water-activated and 100% compostable, and recyclable. And it's super sticky for your boxes or our HEROBUBBLE and HEROHEX padded mailers with paper on the outside.
Please note: water-activated tape can't be used on our non-padded HEROPACK mailers just yet (but keep an eye out for a solution on this soon!). 

Water Activated Tape (aka Gummed Tape) is paper-based packaging tape that gets activated by - yep you guessed it - water! Out with the chemicals and in with the renewable ingredients.

Just to make this magical tape even more magic-y, this water activated tape is stronger than regular plastic tape. That's because this has a cross-pattern of fibres to add strength.

Here are the details: 

  • Size 50mm wide x 50M long
  • Colour: Yellow background with red "Express Post" writing.
  • Made from the renewable and compostable plant-derived adhesive (made of hot melt corn starch adhesive) & paper backing.
  • Recyclable and compostable
  • The wood pulp used is 100% FSC certified recycled
  • The tape is dyed and printed using water-based ink to ensure the tape is recyclable and compostable.

Make your HEROTAPE EXPRESS look extra cute by pairing it with our HERODISPENSER in either blue or pink.

      Import duties: Orders placed outside of Australia will be classed as an import in the recipient country. As such, you will need to pay the associated import duties and taxes required to clear customs in your country. 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. No refunds will apply in these cases either.

      Returns:

      Change of mind: If you have purchased the wrong size, or no longer need your mailers, you may be able to return them for a store credit within 14 days of purchase. 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.

      Lasts Forever!

      We use all compostable packaging for our small business and one roll of this Express tape lasts us ages! I just cut on the line provided and use one EXPRESS POST section for each of our boxes. It's big, it's sticky, and stands out! Thanks Hero <3

      Perfect for my needs

      Love being able to use a paper based express post tape rather than the plastic style. Better for the environment!
