Equipment for packing tea in disposable filter bags

Equipment for packing tea in filter bags

In its modern form, the tea bag was invented in 1929 by engineer Adolf Rambold, who worked at the Teekanne company (Germany). In the same year, he also created a filling machine. After 20 years, this company patented a two-chamber bag. Today, tea bags account for over half of all sales in Russia, almost 80% in Europe and 90-96% in the UK. This serves to explain why equipment for packing and packaging tea in bags with a label and a thread is in great demand, and not only among large manufacturers of tea products.

Dear partners!

Our company, together with our partners in the Russian Federation, offers you contract packaging of tea, herbs and other raw materials on modern Italian IMA C-21 machines in two-chamber filter bags with a thread and a label, packed in an individual sachet envelope.
Based on existing developments and proven technologies, we are ready to make unique and super-cheap offers for federal chains and manufacturing companies!

An individual sachet-envelope can be made both from a combined Triplex type material (pictured) and from laminated paper. The second option is definitely cheaper. Such packaging forms a premium and presentable look for the bag, retains the aroma of tea well and does not allow small particles of the contents to spill out under the film of the finished box.

Printing on the envelope and the label can be absolutely any.

To date, this type of tea packaging is the most popular. Popular brands such as LIPTON, GREENFIELD,RISTON, AKBAR and many others.
We can offer you both the packing of sealed sachet envelopes into any boxes, according to your desire, which will later be wrapped with a transparent film, and the packing of sachet bags without boxes into corrugated boxes.

Packing is carried out on the machine IMA C-21 - and fully automatic.

The advantages of this packaging:

Modern premium envelope that allows you to apply any logo

Preservation of the aroma of tea in a sealed sachet package

The absence of spilled dust under the film, as is the case with most cardboard boxes with tea, which definitely worsens the presentation.

The two-chamber bag has won popularity and trust of buyers.

We can pack for you both your tea and ours, as well as unique tea compositions from Altai and Siberian herbs of our own design, which are very popular now and flavored with exclusively natural herbs, and mono herbs: chamomile, mint, lemon balm, thyme, St. John's wort, carcade and much more.

Sincerely, Deputy General Director of ChaiSnab LLC

Sergey Zavyalov.

Despite serious competition and a large number of major players, the tea production market is considered attractive for investment. Especially when it comes to tea bags. No wonder there are so many tea bags on store shelves, from cheap to expensive brands.

Our consumer is driven by the convenience of using tea bags, so the volume of its consumption is constantly growing. The average Russian annually consumes up to 130 liters of tea. That's about three glasses of tea a day.

And yet, for those who decide to open their own production of packaged tea, it is important to solve three main problems (in order of importance): who to sell tea to, where to buy raw materials, what equipment to choose. The first question is the most difficult. The greatest profit will come from cooperation with federal retail chains, but entry into them is actually closed for small businesses. It remains to be content with local grocery chains and tea shops, which are not interested in a large volume of supplies. But they will be interested in the price and quality of your products, and most importantly, the demand for your tea. And in order for your tea to be bought, the consumer must know about it, so you should immediately think over an advertising campaign and all kinds of promotions. You need to act comprehensively and work out all the stages of starting a business - from searching for distribution channels for products to finding the organization's personnel.

How Much Do Tea Manufacturers Earn?

The productivity of even small modern lines is about 60 thousand packs of tea per month, if you work 22 days in one shift. The wholesale price for one pack of inexpensive tea starts from 20 rubles. It turns out: the monthly volume of production in monetary terms is 1.2 million rubles. A rough calculation shows that profit, taking into account 100% sales of all products, is 20% of the specified amount (the rest is spent on raw materials, wages, utility bills, etc.). Thus, the potential monthly profit is from 200 to 300 thousand rubles.

Investments

Tea production is an expensive project. To open a business, you will need to spend on:

• purchase of equipment (from 1.5 million rubles);
• renovation of the premises (from 200 thousand rubles);
• rental deposit (from 200 thousand rubles);
  advertising campaign (from 200 thousand rubles);
• purchase of raw materials (100 thousand rubles);
• business registration and preparation of permits (from 100 thousand rubles).

Also, a certain part of the funds must be allocated to the reserve fund: from 500 thousand rubles. Ultimately, the cost of opening a business starts from 4 million rubles. The return on investment should be expected no earlier than three years after the start of the business.

Business registration

The optimal organizational form is a limited liability company (LLC). Opening an LLC costs more than registering an individual entrepreneur, but this form has a lot of advantages:

• you can attract an investor or partner to the company by making it the founder (it will not be possible to develop the tea business without attracting investments);
• in case of failure, the LLC can always be sold;
• with legal entities (LLC is a legal entity, and an individual entrepreneur is an ordinary physical person), both suppliers and buyers of products work much more willingly;
• in the event of force majeure situations and litigation, an LLC risks only its authorized capital, unlike an individual entrepreneur, who risks all his property.

In addition to registering a business, you will need to obtain the appropriate permits for the production of tea. After all, we are dealing with food products, and regulatory authorities visit such facilities much more often. Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary problems, it is necessary to prepare technical specifications for production, technical instructions, a hygienic conclusion of the SES and a declaration of conformity for products. For help in preparing these documents, contact specialized firms.

Raw material issue

First of all, you should find suppliers of two main components: tea products and packaging. Tea products are bulk bulk tea, which can be purchased in different versions. Tea can be large-leaf, small-leaf, granulated and for packing in filter bags.

Suppliers can be searched both among domestic and foreign companies. Few of us are engaged in tea bush cultivation, mainly, these are small farms of the Krasnodar Territory and the Altai Republic. Basically, bulk tea is imported to us from Asia: China, Vietnam, India and Sri Lanka.

It is best to buy tea from abroad directly, which allows you to get raw materials at a lower price. But none of the foreign companies will contact small purchases. Therefore, at the initial stage, it will be necessary to purchase raw materials from domestic companies - resellers, who add their margin to the batch. The estimated price of one kilogram of bulk black tea is from 50 to 70 rubles.

As packaging, you will need to purchase cardboard boxes and paper tea bags (if you are going to produce "tea in bags"). Packaging suppliers can be found on Chinese marketplaces like aliexpress.com. Packing for 100 empty bags costs from $2.

room

The premises for the organization of production must comply with all the requirements of the SES and fire safety standards, equipped with electricity and water supply, heating and ventilation systems. Room sizes start from 100 sq. m. The room is divided into a production workshop, a warehouse for raw materials and a warehouse for finished products, an office department, a staff room, a toilet room and an utility block. The main part of the premises is allocated for production, as the packaging equipment is large and requires large areas for installation.

Equipment

Manual labor is not acceptable for such a business, so you will have to spend money on purchasing a tea packaging line. The line includes filling equipment (automatic machines IMA C50, C51), blending drum, cellophane and compressor. In the new version, such a kit will cost from 2 million rubles. But you can save up to 50% by buying a used line. The average productivity of filling machines is up to 1000 bags per minute. Most of the budget lines that are on the market today are machines of Chinese origin.

Staff

To service the production will need to hire 10 - 15 people. The mandatory staff includes a technologist, a head of a production site, a mechanic, line operators (3-4 people), handymen (2 people), a storekeeper and an accountant. The average wage fund of such a team: 150 - 200 thousand rubles per month.

It takes from 3 to 6 months to search for personnel, therefore, the formation of a team should be started long before the opening of the line.
