Biodegradable packaging of premium tea
High-quality tea or a special tea with additional healthy ingredients is currently packaged in biodegradable materials. Omori Europe has a packaging machine that can produce pyramid or square tea bags and then packaging this premium tea.
To cater to a fast-paced lifestyle, beverages need to be convenient, attractive and ready to use. Tea is one of the most consumed drinks in the Netherlands. It is a suitable and healthy alternative to juices and soft drinks and provides instant refreshment. Some teas have some mild stimulant benefits that are not considered harmful, as is the case with coffee and other energy drinks.
Growing popularity of herbal teas
Many tea producers see this shift towards the tea segment as an opportunity to appeal to consumers for a healthier and more functional alternative. In particular, the growing popularity of herbal teas, consumer health awareness and ongoing wellness trends are some of the driving factors that will influence the herbal tea market in the coming years. Herbal teas, whether or not in combination with natural ingredients such as turmeric, cinnamon, ginger extract and superfoods, are widely accepted for their health benefits. The European ready-to-use tea bag market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% over the period 2020-2025.
Packing premium tea in biodegradable material
Keeping our immune system healthy has been a popular topic in the past year, partly due to Covid-19. We spend more time at home and are looking for a moment of wellbeing, a moment to stop and relax. As a result, tea remains one of the most popular beverages consumers buy at the supermarket. Tips on the packaging how to make the tea are highly appreciated by the tea drinker. Tea producers are also forced to consider what material they use to package premium tea. High-quality tea or a special tea with additional healthy ingredients is currently packaged in biodegradable materials.
Pyramid or square tea bags on one machine
Omori Europe has a packaging machine that can produce pyramid or square tea bags. The assembly of the wire and the label on the filter is done with ultrasonics, which means that our customers can start producing with standard filters. Premium teas are usually packaged in biodegradable material. The pyramid bag is not only visually appealing but also ensures that the tea has enough space when it is “pulled”. The additional ingredients are clearly visible and the taste comes into its own in the tea.
In addition to the tea machine that produces the pyramid bag or the square bag, we also have an envelope machine with which the tea can be packed per piece. Packing a square tea bag on a flow packer is also an option, resulting in a beautiful slim packaging.
