Maintaining loose leaf tea quality in high-volume commercial kitchens, hotel pantries, and busy tea rooms requires reliable protection against moisture, light, and ambient odours. Designed specifically for food service operations, this food-grade commercial storage tub provides a spacious, airtight environment that preserves the essential oils, delicate aromas, and natural flavours of your tea inventory.
Featuring heavy-duty, food-safe plastic construction and a snap-fit lid with an intact tamper-evident tear tab, this tub guarantees chain-of-custody security and hygiene compliance. To preserve the first-use seal, tubs are dispatched with the lid unsealed, allowing you to fill the container with up to 4kg of loose tea or 1,000 pyramid tea bags on-site and snap the tamper-evident seal into place. Its stackable design also enables multiple units to be stored vertically, saving valuable shelf and pantry space while keeping service areas organised.
