plastic free earl grey tea.png

  • For a smooth, malty and citrus scented black tea!

    Earl Grey produces a rich amber infusion with zesty floral notes.

    To enjoy this tea at its best, always use freshly drawn and boiled water. (to help the planet, only boil the amount of water you need to save water and energy)

    Use 1 heaped teaspoon (around 2g) per person and pour over freshly boiled water (100°C).

    Steep for 3-5 minutes, allowing the leaves to unfurl and release their full flavours.

    Once the tea has brewed to your liking, strain, add milk/sweetener or go natural.

  • Blend of high quality Chinese black tea and natural Bergamot oil, creating a sophisticated and refined cuppa!

    Naturally caffeinated.

  • Westcountry Tea Co. confirms that it supports and trades in line with the ETI Base code.

    Committed to using and promoting the use of plastic free, this Earl Grey Tea is completely plastic and packaging free.

    Not all teas are certified fair trade however all producers have been vetted to ensure the farms/plantations all comply with national and international laws, meaning no forced or under age labour and workers are paid a correct wage. That they work in safe and hygienic working conditions with no harsh or inhumane treatment and fair working hours.

    Most of West Country Tea Co teas are organic, however they are unable to advertise or sell them as such, as they are not organic certified themselves. As they process the ingredients in blending they would need to be certified and unfortunately this is a very expensive route to take and not an option for them at the moment.

    Contains Fluoride (1450 ppm)

    Vegan and Natural cosmetics certified.

    Full ingredients list:

    Microfine cellulose fibres, Citric acid, Sodium hydrogen carbonate, Silica, Amisoft (Sodium Lauryl Glutamate), Natural mint flavour, Eugenol, Xanthan Gum, Stevia (Stevioside), Menthol, Sodium fluoride, Magnesium Stearate

    Ingredients description:

    Microfine cellulose fibres (Microcrystalline Cellulose)

    The cellulose fibres in the toothpaste tablets are obtained from woody plant parts. Of course, FSC certified and grown in the EU. It is a long-chain polysaccharide that can polish your teeth ultra-smooth up to the interdental spaces. That's why new particles roll off the surfaces of your teeth. Coatings, also known as plaque, can practically not form in the first place.

    Citric acid

    Stimulates the flow of saliva. The increased salivary flow with natural calcium and phosphate ions causes faster remineralization of the enamel and tooth.

    Sodium hydrogen carbonate (Sodium Bicarbonate)

    Also known as sodium bicarbonate, in the reaction with the citric acid adjusts the pH of the tab to a neutral value during tooth brushing.

    Silica

    Serves as gentle cleaning body.

    Amisoft (Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate)

    A mild and natural surfactant composed of vegetable fatty acids and the amino acid glutamic acid isolated from plant proteins. When cleaning, it helps to combine proteins, fats and carbohydrates with water to flush them out when rinsing.

    Natural mint flavor

    Provides together with the stevia extract and menthol for the pleasant feeling of freshness in the mouth.

    Eugenol

    Part of our natural mint flavor. Eugenol is also known as a characteristic flavoring from cloves.

    Xanthan Gum

    A natural polysaccharide that is also used as a thickener and gelling agent. In the toothpaste tab, it provides the pleasant creaminess after chewing the tab.

    Stevia (Stevioside)

    Sweet tasting plant, which together with the aroma and menthol provides the good taste. Stevioside are not sugar, but proteins that have a characteristic sweet taste. Therefore, stevioside can not trigger tooth decay.

    Menthol

    Provides freshness in the mouth

    Sodium fluoride (Sodium Fluoride)

    Serves the remineralization of tooth enamel and can especially help with sensitive teeth, but also with incipient caries.

    Magnesium Stearate

    A herbal excipient necessary for tab production.

  • Sold loose, store in a air tight container at home.

    Sold to us in a paper bag and a cardboard box which are recycled and reused for our plastic free home delivery service.

  • Climate neutral:

    Denttabs have calculated and offset the carbon footprint of their toothpaste tabs together with Climate Partner.

    Renewable raw material:

    More than two-thirds of the toothpaste tabs contain a renewable raw material: cellulose from FSC-certified forests in Sweden.

    Water-free:

    No water, saving an important resource.

    A circular product: By using waste materials to make new products which are then fully recyclable, we can reuse the same materials over and over, closing the circle. This drastically reduces CO2 emissions, stops consumption of the planet’s precious resources, and eliminates pollution; the three core environmental challenges humanity faces. The Circular Checklist: Choose Recycled. Challenge Longevity. Check Recyclable.

    Throwaway single use cups have three problems: what they’re made of, how many there are, and where they end up. The UK is using and binning at least 2.5 billion takeaway cups a year. Just one in every 400 – are recycled. Every day around half a million become street litter, and the vast bulk of them end up in landfill, where the plastic could take centuries to degrade. Most takeaway paper cups have a polyethylene plastic lining which makes them difficult to recycle. And even with the move to compostable cups most are only compostable in an industrial composer rather than at home.

    Remember that with any reusable product, it needs to be reused many times to keep its lifetime carbon emissions below that of the equivalent number of disposable cups - so don’t leave your reusable collecting dust at home!
