Frequently asked questions

Can tea powder and loose-leaf tea be filled into capsules?

Yes. Both instant tea powder and cut/whole-leaf tea can be capsuled — the right capsule, filter and dose depend on your blend and target brew. We confirm this during a pilot.

Which capsule format is best for tea?

Usually Dolce Gusto, because its larger 35ml capsule and pressure-controlled base filter handle the higher volume and gentler extraction tea needs. Other formats can work for concentrated serves.

What is the MOQ for tea capsules?

It depends on format, material and printing. We start most brands with a low-MOQ pilot, then scale once samples are approved. Send your requirement for a tailored quote.

Can you brand the capsules for my tea line?

Yes — custom OEM colors, printed lids and custom sealing films designed around your tea brand. Per-color minimums apply.

Do you offer compostable tea capsules?

Yes — bio-based, certifiable compostable capsules, a natural fit for tea and wellness positioning. Verify the certifications required in your market.
