Emeyu’s choice of material and wrapping
Emeyu is an organic and high-quality tea wrapped in equally high-quality packaging.
At Emeyu we are constantly evaluating which materials and wrapping we should use to make sure it is as sustainable as possible but at the same time also making sure that the tea can keep its flavor as long as possible. It is an ongoing process and we are always following new developments, laws, recommendations for choice of materials, recycling etc. and will change our wrapping accordingly.
We are currently using the following wrapping:
Teabags: Food approved pure cotton without microplastic, GMO free and 100% biodegradable. Please recycle with compost.
Tubes with 20 teabags: The tubes are made of FSC or PEFC certified cardboard and should be recycled with cardboard.
Box with 50 tea foils: The box is made of Cradle to Cradle certified materials and is 100% biodegradable and free from all harmful chemicals and heavy metals. Please recycle with paper. The teabags are wrapped in plastic and please recycle with plastic.
Doypack with tea bags: The doypack is made of cellulose and can be recycled with industrial compost or residual waste.
Doypack with loose tea: The doypack is made of cellulose and can be recycled with industrial compost or residual waste.
All our teas are tested in laboratories in Germany, to meet the requirements for organic teas.

SDG 5:
Gender Equality
Our biodegradable cotton tea bags are handsewn by women in a factory in Marrakesh, Morocco.
We have selected this material not just for its environmental impact but also because we believe in and support the vision and philosophy of our Moroccan partner who is committed to aiding its community. The company employs mostly women in management positions and supports its largely female workforce with medical insurance and education.

Emeyu keep setting key criteria for production and sourcing. Quite simply these cover our commitment to organic produce, to recyclable materials and to function.
