Eco-Friendly Packaging for Bahati Chai
Donation protected
Hi, Bahati and Maua here, owners of Bahati Chai.
Plastic waste is concerning and very catastrophic. Our small-scale tea company wants to be free from plastics and other non-bio items. Not much thought is given to where post-consumer packaging ends up and thats why we are investing in Plant-Based Packaging.
1. Safer for the Environment – Am sure we all knew this was going to be the first benefit mentioned here. The plant-based packaging doesn’t provide any danger to the environment like normal plastic bags.
2. Plastic Free – Plastic waste is a huge problem . We are trying to reduce our dependence of plastics and petroleum-based products.
3. Durable & Biodegradable – Plant-based packaging can be used and reused over a period of time. Plant-based packaging is especially beneficial because it's compostable; giving each post-consumer packaging a double purpose.
With your donation:
We are looking to purchase our pouches from www.sirane.com

The Earthpouch from Sirane is an environmentally-friendly stand-up pouch which is plastic-free and can be recycled. A paper with a 100% plastic-free heat-sealable coating is formed into the pouch, providing a grease, water and moisture barrier.
The pouch is recyclable as part of the paper stream, and is suitable for repulping. There is an option to use natural water-based inks.
Sample design using eco-friendly pouches.
We are asking for 50% of the initial cost for 3,000 customizable pouches.
The cost is significantly more than plastic pouches but the benefit of plastic-free pouches outweighs the cost.
