Studies have shown that a single plastic tea bag can release over 11 billion microplastics and 3 billion nanoplastics into a single cup of tea when steeped in hot water. These particles are made from nylon and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) — the same materials used in plastic bottles. Even “silky” or “pyramid” tea bags that look premium are typically made from plastic mesh.
What Makes It Better
A stainless steel snap ball tea strainer is completely inert — it won’t leach chemicals or shed particles into your drink regardless of water temperature. It’s easy to fill with your favourite loose leaf tea, snaps shut securely, and opens for quick cleaning. One strainer replaces thousands of single-use tea bags over its lifetime.
Key Benefits
- Zero microplastics — food-grade stainless steel is completely non-reactive
- Works with any loose leaf tea, herbs, or spice blends
- Easy to use — snap open, fill, close, steep, rinse
- Lasts for years with zero waste
- Loose leaf tea is often higher quality and more affordable per cup than bagged tea
