Rishi Tea debuts eco-friendly packaging
Rishi Tea, a gourmet tea company specializing in organic and trade fair teas, has introduced two product lines sporting new, environmentally friendly packaging. The new Oolong and Classic Black Tea ranges replace a labeled tin by an air-tight foil bag in a printed, bi-lingual box. The Eco-Fresh boxes are made with 50% post-consumer recycled fiber and printed with vegetable-based inks. They are printed locally and shipped flat to reduce the carbon footprint. Rishi Tea will gradually transition its entire line of tins to this new, more sustainable format.
