Tea has existed as a beverage since 2000 B.C. The brewing, serving, and drinking of tea are time-honored rituals throughout the world. A tea bag (or “teabag”) is generally agreed to be a small, porous bag used to steep tea. These bags may be sealed and filled with tealeaves or they may be open and empty (thus allowing the tea brewer / drinker to fill it with whole-leaf tea). Many tea bags have a string attached to make removing them from the brewing vessel easier, however, this is not true for all tea bags. Generally, tea bags with a string attached also bear the name of their producer or the type of tea on a small piece of paper at the opposite end of the string from the tea bag itself. Tea bag packaging industry, the demand for varieties of black, herbal, green, and fruit infusions is getting stronger day-by-day, and the competition is quite fierce as well. The packaging not only preserves and protects the product within the tea bag but also communicates a brand’s message and ultimately contributes to the sales process. Sustainability is also one of the primary concerns in the tea bag packaging industry. As a result, packaging equipment manufacturers are increasingly adopting automation in their production line and adhering to Sustainable Trade Initiatives throughout the globe.
