Liquid Planet releasing fully biodegradable tea packaging

December 24, 2009 | By the PSA Desk based on a press release

 Liquid Planet from Missoula, USA, released a 100% organic tea packaged in single serve, fully biodegradable and compostable sachets and clear overwraps, making them one of the first companies to do so. Liquid Planet Tea is 100% USDA organic certified premium full leaf tea enclosed in a nonbleached, biodegradable and compostable sachet. The sachet is wrapped in a fully biodegradable and compostable corn-resin overwrap and then packed into recyclable cartons made from post consumer material in a facility that offsets its energy use with wind energy credits. The particularly unique component of the Liquid Planet packaging is the NatureFlex corn-resin overwrap. Although it appears like traditional plastic, instead of oil based materials it is comprised of a naturally-occurring plant starch, making it biodegradable, compostable and sustainable.
