TEA AND TEA BAG PACKAGING

There are many shapes of tea bags:

1. Two Dimensional Squares or Circles; and
2. Three Dimensional Cubes or Pyramids.

The squares and circles are the most common types, being produced my majority of tea producers, especially those who manufacture ground black tea.

For those producers selling a vast variety of tea, including all the types of green teas as well, the three dimensional cubes and pyramids are essential. This is because they are more voluminous.

Dry tea is usually curled or rolled, and starts to unfold at the ends as hot water penetrates it when steeped. If the tea is unable to fully unfurl, then those covered parts would not be able to give up their flavor, making the tea weak and muddy.

With the function of acting as a tea infuser, the tea bags are made from either filter paper, and sometimes even silk cotton or silk by upscale businesses.

How these tea bags are packaged are a whole other aspect of tea manufacturing, though. It is imperative that the tea bags remain protected from outside elements that could rip it. For that, the most common type is box packaging.

Box Packaging:

Maneuvered into any shape and size, whether that’s a simple cube or cuboid like box, or an aesthetic one with a ‘petal top’, it has the ability to pack tea for long term storage and usage by being manufactured with the highest quality package material. Made of Kraft paper, and sometimes even cardboard, the boxed packages are shipped in flat form, with assembly being a piece of cake!

Much like coffee, tea has a vast market, with a large customer base. It is one of the best opportunities to explore, but only if you aim to use the correct packaging. Not only does the packaging reach out to the customer by catching their eye, but it also has to protect the product inside.

The first impression matters, but the last impression stays. Go all out, and market as well pack your tea exceptionally with Assemco and its customizable packaging!
