How Plastic Free Tea Bags Are Made.
Our plastic free tea bags are manufactured from plant-based materials woven on large looms to create a thread. This material allows the loose-leaf teas to be seen and, of course, to infuse well too. Jenier pyramid tea bags do not contain nylon or any other petroleum-based compound. The tea bags are both biodegradable, compostable, and of course, they do not contain any plastic.
What about the string and tag on the tea bags?
The string and paper tag are both made of plant-based materials and are compostable. The string and tag are attached to each other and the pyramid tea bag material using ultrasonic technology. No glue or staples are involved. As the tea bags are packed into 100% compostable silver pouches, they are nitrogen flushed to preserve their flavour and freshness.
Are the overwrap envelopes free of plastic?
For our range of individually wrapped tea bags, the envelope material we use is 100% compostable and totally plastic free.
