Compostable Tea Multipack

Metropolitan Tea Company, a premium tea supplier, was looking for a sustainable packaging option for their multi-pack of tea bags.

Their luxury hotel customers inquired about a compostable solution. However, they also needed a high oxygen and moisture barrier to preserve the sensitive flavors of their specialty teas. Moreover, they wanted to maintain their current filling speeds and print their logo and information in-line on the packaging.
