Tin Sleeve is the best solution

Questions about the tin sleeve

Can you size it for my own tin?

Yes. Send width and height and we will draw a dieline.

What is the best box for loose-leaf tea?

Loose leaf usually goes in a tin or a pouch, and the box is the outer layer. A tin sleeve or a gift box with a tin inside suits most loose leaf brands. Tea bags fit a simple tuck end carton.

Can I print different blends on one order?

Yes. Each blend is a separate artwork, and quantities are counted per design. Ask for a multi-design quote and we will price the set together.

Will tea absorb smells from the board?

Cartons are secondary packaging and the tea should be in a sealed inner pack. Use a sealed pouch or foil bag inside the carton to keep aroma in.
