This article will focus on the common material types of paper tea sticks to help you deeply understand the performance advantages and selection recommendations of different papers.
1. Environmentally friendly and non-toxic food-grade paper-the first choice for health and safety
Paper tea sticks are in direct contact with tea leaves or tea bag ropes, and must use non-toxic and environmentally friendly paper that meets food safety standards. This type of paper has passed strict testing and certification, does not contain harmful chemicals, and ensures that it is harmless to the human body.
Common types include:
Food-grade kraft paper: natural texture, good toughness, suitable for brands pursuing environmentally friendly and natural styles.
Matte coated paper: delicate printing effect, suitable for presenting rich patterns and details.
Uncoated recycled paper: using recycled resources, saving energy, in line with the concept of green and sustainable development.
The use of such materials not only meets the basic requirements of health and safety, but also conforms to the market's expectations for green consumption.
2. Renewable materials and degradable paper-responding to the trend of environmental protection
With the popularization of environmental awareness, more and more brands tend to choose renewable and degradable materials to reduce environmental burden. As a "small but important" part of packaging, paper tea sticks are also gradually adopting these innovative materials.
Main features include:
Strong biodegradability: It can be naturally decomposed after use and does not cause long-term pollution.
Renewable raw materials: Pulp made from sustainably managed forest resources is mostly used.
Comply with environmental certification standards: such as FSC certification and PEFC certification to ensure compliance with material sources.
The application of such materials not only enhances the brand's environmental image, but also meets consumers' demands for environmentally friendly packaging and enhances product market competitiveness.
3. The difference between waterproof paper and ordinary paper and selection suggestions
Tea bags and tea packaging are often in a humid environment, and some customers have special requirements for the water resistance of paper tea sticks. At this time, waterproof paper material becomes the preferred material.
Differences and characteristics:
Ordinary paper: Strong water absorption, good printing effect, but easy to deform and break when exposed to water, suitable for use in dry environments.
Waterproof paper: The surface is treated with a special coating, has good waterproof and moisture-proof capabilities, is wear-resistant and fold-resistant, and is more suitable for high humidity environments or long-term storage.
Selection suggestions:
For regular tea bags and short-term sales products, ordinary food-grade paper can be used, taking into account both cost and environmental protection.
For products that need to be stored for a long time or exported to high-humidity areas, it is recommended to use waterproof paper to ensure that the tea skewer is intact and enhance the consumer experience.
The material selection of paper tea skewer is not only related to the safety and aesthetics of the product, but also a reflection of brand responsibility and market trends. When suppliers provide customized solutions, they can reasonably combine environmental protection, non-toxicity, degradability and waterproof characteristics to bring customers more competitive product advantages.
