All Yorkshire Tea products are Rainforest Alliance Certified™, grown and harvested on farms and forests that follow their sustainable practices. This certification encompasses all three pillars of sustainability — social, economic, and environmental.
We’re also members of the Ethical Tea Partnership – with them we are able to partner with our suppliers and other tea companies to develop and support initiatives at community level as well as responding to major social and environmental challenges that the tea industry still faces.
The box is made from cartonboard, which is made from trees – a renewable resource that can easily be replenished.
This goes in your paper and cardboard recycling.
75% of the tea bag material is natural-based fibres: a mix of wood pulp and either abaca (a kind of banana plant) or rayon (made from woodpulp). 25% is an oil-based plastic sealing material called polypropylene, but we plan to switch that to what we now use to seal most of our other tea bags - a renewable, plant-based, industrially compostable bioplastic called Polylactic Acid (PLA), which is made from cornstarch.
At the moment, these should go in your refuse bin.
This is made from metallised polyethylene (an oil-based plastic). We'd like to change this packaging once we've changed the outer wrap on our other tea boxes (that’s a much higher overall volume of plastic, which is why we’re tackling that first).
This isn't currently recyclable, so it should go in your refuse bin.
Bedtime Brew is made with Yorkshire Tea Decaf, so it starts with a lovely cup of tea. Then we add lemongrass, lemon balm, nutmeg and natural vanilla flavouring. All those flavours combine to make a really comforting decaf drink with a relaxing, almost-malty flavour, especially when you drink it with milk.
