Our Packaging

Every element of how we package SU CHI teas is chosen with the same intention we bring to formulation. The packaging is part of the ritual — it should feel considered, beautiful, and as aligned with our values as the tea inside it.

  • Protective

    Packaging that preserves the potency and freshness of every herb from production to your cup.

  • Intentional

    Each format is chosen for a reason — nothing is arbitrary. Form follows function, always.

  • Sustainable

    We minimise plastic, favour reusable and compostable materials, and continuously review our choices.

  • Beautiful

    The unboxing experience matters. Packaging that feels as good as the tea inside it.

Our Formats

  • 40g Glass Jar

    Our signature format. Amber glass protects the herbs from light degradation, preserving volatile oils and potency. The jar is reusable — we encourage you to refill it, repurpose it, or return it. Sealed with a food-safe aluminium lid.

  • 90g Biodegradable Cello Bag

    A home-compostable cello bag made from plant-based materials. Designed for those who prefer a lighter format or want to refill their jar. Heat-sealed to preserve freshness, with a resealable zip for everyday use.

  • 200g Bulk Pouch

    For the committed daily drinker. A larger format that reduces packaging per serving and offers the best value. Stand-up pouch with a resealable zip, designed to sit neatly in a pantry or beside your kettle.

  • Sample

    A small, compostable sachet containing approximately two servings — enough to experience the blend properly before committing to a full size. The lowest-waste way to explore the collection.

Our Commitments

We believe beautiful products shouldn’t come with unnecessary waste. From plastic-free shipping to reusable glass jars, every packaging choice is made with intention. We keep materials minimal, prioritize recyclable and compostable alternatives, and continuously look for better ways to reduce our environmental impact—without compromising on quality or design.

  • No Single-Use Plastic

    We do not use plastic bags, plastic mailers, or plastic inner liners. Our shipping materials are paper-based, recyclable, or compostable.

  • Reusable Glass First

    The 40g glass jar is designed to last indefinitely. We actively encourage reuse and are exploring refill options for the future.

  • Continuous Improvement

    We review our packaging choices regularly. As better options become available — lower carbon, more compostable, more beautiful — we adopt them.

  • Minimal Packaging

    We don't add unnecessary tissue paper, filler, or decorative elements that serve no function. Every material inside your order has a purpose.

A note from Tiffany

I have thought carefully about every element of how these teas arrive to you. Packaging is not an afterthought — it is the first physical experience of the brand, and it should reflect the same level of care that went into the formulation. We are not perfect, but we are deliberate. And we will keep improving.
