Family founded and female led, Austar Packaging has been supplying Australian businesses with quality wholesale packaging consumables since 2002.
OUR STORY
More than just packaging - a long-term partnership
Austar Packaging began in 2002 with a simple purpose: supply Australian businesses with reliable, high-quality packaging consumables they can count on — every order, every time.
From humble beginnings, we've grown into a trusted wholesale partner serving hundreds of clients across every state in Australia. Our reach spans healthcare, hospitality, industrial, and food service sectors, with a product range that covers everything from standard bin liners to specialised medical-grade consumables.
Our expert knowledge is backed by years of hands-on material research — trialing products, testing durability, and refining our range until we're confident it will perform. That's why our clients keep coming back.
In addition to our standard product range, we offer tailored custom packaging solutions and product design services, working alongside specialist designers to bring every brief to life.
