Abstract
The invention provides a sealed package. The package contains at least one, and preferably two stacks of similarly sized tea bags. The stacks are contained in a metal foil sleeve of which the ends are sealed by means of seals lying transverse to the length direction of the sleeve. The tea bags are rectangular and lie with their length direction at right angles to the length direction of the sleeve. The sleeve is a neat fit around the tea bags to maintain the integrity of the stacks when the tacks are handled. The foil sleeve maintains the freshness of the tea. The stacks may each contain twenty tea bags. A family of cartons are sized to receive one, two, three and four of said packages.
The invention also provides a method of and apparatus for producing the packages.
