When it comes to choosing a tea sachet, not all materials are created equally. While there are plenty of options on the market, Royal Tea New York opts for a soilon-based, biodegradable pyramid sachet. This eco-friendly choice is better for you and the planet, unlike other brands that may have microplastics and non-compostable fibers in their tea bags. Learn about the differences between tea sachets and tea bags to determine what’s best for your offering.
Traditional Tea Bags
Before diving into why soilon tea bags are the better option, let’s get into other commonly used tea bags.
Cloth and Paper Bags
Many tea bags use paper with non-compostable binders or bleaches. While they may seem natural, these bags can include hidden plastics that don’t break down.
Nylon and Plastic Tea Bags
Some tea bags use nylon or plastic mesh, which don’t biodegrade, can release microplastics into your cup, and contribute to landfill waste.
Stapled or Glued Tea Bags
Traditional square tea bags can use glue or staples that may affect flavor and add unnatural substances to your tea.
Soilon Pyramid Sachets
Unlike conventional tea bags that can contain microplastics or bleached paper, Royal Tea New York’s pyramid sachets are made from soilon, a biodegradable material derived from plant starch.
This means that our pyramid sachets have the following traits:
- Eco-friendly and commercially compostable
- No plastics or microplastics
- Better flavor extraction
- Durable and convenient brewing option.
The Pyramid shape also provides more room for the tea leaves to unfurl and infuse flavor into your brew, resulting in a delicious cup of tea every time.
Final Thoughts
Not all tea sachets are created equally. While many brands continue to use materials that are less sustainable, or even harmful, Royal Tea New York’s pyramid sachets offer a smarter, cleaner option without compromising flavor, quality, or convenience.
