Tea and Coffee Bag Packing Material · Model PLA

PLA Filter Bag Film

The PLA filter bag film is a 100% biodegradable material made from corn fibre, designed for use in pyramid tea bags and coffee hanging-ear bags. It decomposes into water and carbon dioxide in natural soil conditions. Available in three sizes with 6000 bags per roll and 6 rolls per carton, it supports single-sided, double-sided or custom print options. This film is suitable for brands seeking compostable packaging that aligns with environmental trends in tea and coffee packaging.

How It Compares

Traditional PET filmPLA film is 100% biodegradable and compostable, while PET is not and may fail environmental compliance checks
Nylon filmPLA film decomposes naturally and supports compostable claims, while nylon persists in the environment
Non-woven fabricPLA film offers higher clarity and better print quality, while non-woven is opaque and less suitable for transparent branding

Use Guide

  1. 1Unroll the film carefully to avoid creasing or tearing
  2. 2Load the film roll into the machine with the correct width and alignment
  3. 3Set the machine to match the bag size: 120mmx50mm, 140mmx58mm, or 160mmx65mm
  4. 4Ensure the print side faces the correct direction for visibility and branding
  5. 5Run a test batch to verify seal integrity and print alignment
  6. 6Store rolls in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture damage
