True Tea FAQ Hilfreich Fragen Antworten

Konnten wir dir helfen?

Wir sind für dich da – schreibe uns einfach, sollte deine Frage noch nicht geklärt sein.

Where does the tea come from?2021-12-26T01:12:57+01:00

The components of the blends as well as the teas themselves come from different countries. Regular on-site visits of our pre-supplier as well as the long-standing cooperation with plantations allow highest quality standards and ensure highest quality as well as environmentally and socially compatible cultivation. Of course, quality is also regularly checked in laboratory tests and by on-site audits. After all, trust is good, but control is better!

What are TT Points?2023-07-14T12:36:33+02:00

True Tea Points (or TT Points) are bonus points that you can earn when you shop. You can then redeem them later in your account for discounts.

For every 1 € of purchase value you collect 2 TT Points.

 

Do I need a True Tea account to place an order?2023-05-21T23:14:38+02:00

No, you can order without an account. However, an account has many advantages. You can manage all your orders through our website and collect 2 TT Points per 1 € of sales with every purchase. You can then redeem them for discounts.

Can I return items?2022-02-23T13:07:11+01:00

Yes, you can. We offer you free exchange/return 14 days after receiving the goods. Just contact us by mail.

Is grass paper sustainable?2023-05-10T08:43:05+02:00

And how! Compared to normal paper made from virgin fibers, grass paper saves 99% water and 95% CO₂ in production. Grass paper is grown relatively regionally (compared to wood). This saves transport distances.

How long does the delivery take?2022-02-23T12:59:08+01:00

We usually ship your goods within 48 hours, provided that all items are available.

If this is not the case, we will contact you to clarify the further procedure.

What does True Tea do for sustainability?2022-01-28T22:31:13+01:00

As you have probably noticed, sustainability is important to us. We think environmental protection should not be an extra, but standard. That is why we offer only environmentally friendly and plastic-free packaging. At no extra charge and without you having to do anything.

Shipping is also plastic free, we use paper/cardboard packaging material and corn starch packaging chips. In addition, the shipment comes to you climate neutral.

Our tea is available in either cans or bags. The cans are made of recyclable tinplate, and the bags are made of paper/cellulose and starch. The bags are easily garden compostable and of course plastic-free.

Last but not least, our website servers are 100% powered by green electricity. If you want to learn more about what we’re doing for the environment, check it out here.

What is environmentally friendly about packaging?2021-12-25T02:28:16+01:00

Good question! We firmly believe in the credo: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.

Therefore, we currently offer two packages:

Cardboard cans

The chic tins are handmade and are made of cardboard. The core of the sleeve is made of recycled paper. After use, you can refill them or simply dispose of them in the paper trash. The cans are of course food safe and plastic free.

The cans are made of only one material (paper). Thus, recycling is particularly easy. The use of already recycled paper in the cans also reduces the environmental footprint. A round thing, we think.

Reclosable bags

We rely on garden compostable and 100% plastic-free bags. And they are honestly good! These high quality bags are made in the EU and become compost after 180 days. This has also been confirmed by the TÜV. And the bags are also practical to reseal. The bags are made of cellulose, paper and starch.

We fill our shipping boxes only with paper material or floppies made of corn starch. Both can be recycled and are 100% plastic free.

And what about our tea accessories? Well, here, unfortunately, possibly (recyclable) plastic is used in the packaging, so that these arrive safely at your home. Unfortunately, this cannot be done any other way at present. As part of our transparency, we show you exactly how each item is packaged on the product pages.

 

We pay attention to sustainability in all steps and especially the elimination of plastic wherever possible. Not everywhere we have reached where we would like to go. But be sure: we will continue to do our best to further improve the packaging materials.
