Empty tea bags – corn starch – biodegradable, compostable

Pack of 100 or 50

Made from corn starch

Biodegradable and compostable

To be used with our range of loose teas

While many regular pressed paper teabags contain plastic (you aren’t dreaming – yes, plastic!), our empty tea bags are completely plastic-free. Instead, they are made from eco-friendly corn starch, without staples or metal rings so as not to alter the aromatic notes of our teas.

Plastic is used in regular tea bags in order to seal them under heat treatment. In fact, most regular “paper” teabags contain 20 – 30% plastic.

Then there’s the premium ‘silk’ pyramid type. These always contain some form of plastic, and absolutely no silk.

Our biodegradable and compostable teabags and theoretically edible ! They are safer for you, and better for the planet.

Using empty tea bags allows loose tea to keep its freshness and natural aromas – without plastic!
