Why Choose Planet Organic?
Organic Tea Grown by Nature
We scour the Earth to find growers who work with nature to cultivate top quality produce. This means our teas are free from synthetic chemicals, fertilisers and are non-GMO. The result is a cup of pure organic goodness for you and the Earth.
Friendly Product, Friendly Packaging
We carefully considered every stage of our products lifecycle. A certified organic tea has to be complimented by packaging with the same commitment. The result is using plant-based materials that allow you to compost the entire box at home, retuning its nutrients back to the Earth.
Freshly Packed in your Backyard
We make and pack every bag right here in Australia. With shorter lead times on shipments, every box has small batch freshness. The result is you get the freshest cup possible, every time.
Pure Ingredients, Rich Flavour
We know flavour means everything to tea lovers. That's why use the pure ingredients without any artificial flavours. Simply put, what's on the box, is what's in the box. The result is a clean, rich flavour in every cup.
FAQ's
Are any of your ingredients fumigated, irradiated or genetically modified?
No, irradiation and fumigation are prohibited treatments for Certified Organic produce. If required, heat treatment or freezing are alternative acceptable methods.
Genetically modified ingredients are not permitted under the National Organic Standard Edition 3.5.
What is your teabag paper made from, and is it bleached?
Our teabag paper is made from a mix of wood pulp, abaca fibre ( manilla hemp ) and plant based sealing fibres. No plastics! We do not string, tag or envelope our bags to avoid waste, and our teabags are compostable.
Our teabag paper is oxygen bleached and is whitened with Hydrogen Peroxide which breaks down into hydrogen and oxygen and dissipates with no residuals.
What materials are used in your packaging?
Our tea bags are sealed in a cellulose freshness barrier. The material is wholly derived from biomass, which is usually corn, sugar cane or cellulose. No petroleum based plastics are used. The wrap is compostable in home composting conditions.
The materials used for our tea boxes are responsibly sourced with a programme protecting forest sustainability. The box is printed using vegetable based inks from renewal raw materials, and is recyclable.
What is the shelf life of your products?
We have a high turn over of stock and are packing products every single day! Which means that sometimes you may receive products that are freshly packed only several days before we send them to you.
All of our Tea Bags and Spices have a best before date of 3 years from manufacture (excluding Earl Grey at 15 months).
Whereas our Loose Leaf Teas and Herbs best before dates are 1.5-2 years.

Always get professional advice
Tea is a wonderful addition to a balanced lifestyle, enjoyed by many as a complementary health food. While it offers a variety of potential wellness benefits, it's important to remember that tea and herbs are not a substitute for medical care.

We always recommend consulting a trusted health professional with relevant qualifications who can provide a tailored, holistic health plan that suits your unique needs. Your well-being is our priority, and we're here to support you on your journey to better, happier, healthier you.
