Tea Bag Boxes are custom-printed folding cartons for loose tea brands, blenders, and gift makers packaging tea bags and sachets for retail. Made from SBS or kraft paperboard with full-color CMYK printing.
A well-designed carton tells shoppers the flavor, mood, and quality of a blend before they open it, which matters on a crowded tea shelf. Print inside and out and the box keeps working when a customer lifts the lid. A small-batch blender can give each variety its own color story while keeping a consistent brand frame across the whole line.
