Market Overview:

The latest research study on the global Tea Bag Paper market finds that the global Tea Bag Paper market reached a value of USD 803.95 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 1076.45 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.99% during the forecast period.

Improve infusion effect and taste

When using tea bag paper, the tea leaves need to be processed, so the taste will not be as good as loose leaf tea infusion. In order to improve the taste of tea bags, the tea bag paper industry is also working hard to innovate. The first tea bag was shaped like a sack, and later it became a flat rectangle. Now there are round tea bags, pyramid tea bags, etc. Among these shapes, a 3D shape, such as a pyramid shape, can provide more space for infusion of tea, which may make the taste better to a certain extent. With the further increase in the demand for the taste of tea bags, it will be a hot trend to carry out various innovations on tea bag paper to improve the infusion effect and taste. The shape of the tea bag paper may be improved, and the material of the tea bag paper may also be innovated. In addition, temperature changes may affect the quality of the tea bag contents, which may hinder sales. Therefore, tea bag paper may also develop in the direction of moisture-proof and other functions.

A healthier diet

Globally, there are various beverages such as juice, cola, coffee, and alcohol. And these beverages have won the favor of consumers because of their taste. With the in-depth research on these processed beverages, more and more reports about the effects of these beverages on health have appeared. Now, on a global scale, consumers' health awareness is growing, and tea, as a healthy and fashionable beverage, is beginning to be more selected. For example, tea is believed to lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels, stabilize blood sugar, prevent tooth decay and even inhibit the growth of cancerous tumors. This makes more consumers choose tea instead of carbonated drinks or deep-processed drinks. The change in consumer diet to a healthier way will bring huge opportunities to the tea industry. At the same time, drinking fresh tea instead of processed tea anytime and anywhere will also become a demand. This will bring development opportunities to tea bag paper.

Possible adverse effects caused by the sealing method

The tea bag paper currently on the market is mainly divided into two types: heat-sealable and non-heat-sealable. For heat-sealable tea bag paper, thermoplastics such as PVC or polypropylene are added. For non-heat-sealable tea bag paper, glue or string is usually used to seal it. After the tea bag paper is added with plastic, some microplastics may be released into the tea during the soaking process, thereby being inhaled by the human body, which will cause adverse effects on human health. At the same time, the tea bag paper sealed with glue may be partially released into the tea during the high temperature soaking process. The drinker may drink it and affect the body. In addition, some tea bag paper will add chemicals such as epichlorohydrin in order to prevent the tea bag from breaking, which is a potential carcinogen and reproductive toxin. For the tea bag paper industry, safety will be a challenge for the industry.
