No matter where on this planet tea is being filled into bags and packed – in the majority of cases, you can rightly assume there’s a TEEPACK machine at work. Since the foundation of TEEPACK in 1948, we have delivered more than 3,000 packaging machines for double chamber tea bags. And the fact that most of them are still running, says a lot about our highest quality standards.

TEEPACK is operating in over 50 countries. Thanks to our top-notch tea bag packaging machines, we’ve come to play a leading role on the world market. Thanks to the groundbreaking invention of the double chamber tea bag almost 70 years ago, TEEPACK embarked on its success story which is represented today by some 180 employees. More than two thirds of them are engineers, mechanical engineers and specialist workers. Together with their colleagues in management and administration they produce what makes TEEPACK so strong: highly efficient and durable packaging machines that are individually tailored to their customers and 100 percent made in Germany. A commitment to quality we keep up everyday – from a single machine to a fully automatic, computer-controlled production line.

Anyone developing and manufacturing technical solutions for the worldwide packaging of tea, many other foods and non-food products has to take accountability for the environment. TEEPACK has long been following the principle of sustainability, as is shown by some examples.

• We build the most durable machines – to date, TEEPACK machines built in the 50s still are in operation all over the world.
• TEEPACK machines stand for low spare parts requirements, highly efficient running and low power consumption.
• Our above-average vertical range of manufacture at the Meerbusch plant significantly reduces our energy demand for logistics and transport – this saves the environment and resources.
• Our modern machine park fulfills the latest energy standards.
• In 2020 we completed the energy audit according to DIN EN 16247-1.

Engineers, developers and builders are always in search of the better. They need open space, the right tools and the means to cast their ideas and inspiration into concrete technological solutions you are to benefit from. With your needs in mind, we develop industry and product specific packaging solutions and put them to the test. Our long experience and steadily growing know-how helps us to detect how exactly the packaging of your product or brand can be optimised.

L'art pour l'art is not an option for TEEPACK. On the contrary, our engineers and technicians in R&D are working on improving patented solutions which are realised together with our clients. This is exactly where the innovative powers of TEEPACK lie: customised packaging solutions, conforming to the particular product of the client. To be a global leader in terms of technology and innovations does not mean we’re constantly re-inventing the wheel. Rather, we’re keen on continuously improving our internationally accepted TEEPACK machines and modules – e.g. with client-specific updates. For, in terms of distribution and consumption, people as well as markets do change. Trends, however tentative they may be at first, can become an increasing need within very short time. TEEPACK knows both the market and consumers. Therefore, we can be creative and come up with innovative ideas in the R&D stage already ­– our long and fruitful cooperation with partners in science, service and industry is very helpful at that.

The most recent example of our innovation efforts is certainly the vertical, form, fill and seal machine ZENOBIA: It is so utterly flexible that it can even be used in other industries as well. Whatever our engineers, developers and designers have done with our international tea clients in mind, did in this case open up the gates for other food products as well, such as e.g. pasta, rice, cereals and coffee and even non-food products.

All our TEEPACK machines have a few things in common, and that will be valid in the future, too: They are exceptionally durable, show extremely little wear, they are produced in Germany – from the smallest part to complete systems – and get best results in terms of energy efficiency. All this combined ensures sustainable success for our clients.

If you happen to bring a substantial technological know-how as well as persevering creativity and couple that to an intuitive feel for markets and customers, these are good prospects for success. That’s exactly what our founding fathers at TEEKANNE must have felt when they established TEEPACK in 1948. The sister company specialised in producing tea bag packaging and vertical, form, fill and seal machines for companies all across the world.

The history of TEEPACK starts with its invention of the double chamber tea bag. The special feature of the then novel tea bag is that – different from previous infusion possibilities – the tea within the double chamber bag is lapped by water in the cup from four sides. Thus, the aroma can develop to the full. It was only 1949 when TEEPACK brought “Constanta” to market – the world’s first packaging machine for double chamber tea bags which was able to produce the impressive number of 120 double chamber tea bags per minute. Back then, this meant a sensational novelty. This double chamber tea bag machine which by 1991 had been further developed and marketed under the name of Perfecta and Compacta, ennobles good tea to excellent tea – in large quantities of up to 420 bags per minute.

Today, TEEPACK provides discerning clients in the whole world with packaging machines for double chamber tea bags which are designed to meet their individual requests. And ever since we’ve introduced Zenobia in 2005, TEEPACK, the global player from Meerbusch/Germany, can also offer a flexible and highly efficient vertical, form, fill and seal machine. We’re quite sure there will be even more milestones in the company’s history in the years to come …

What our high-quality, efficient and sustainable packaging machines need most is a team of ambitious, qualified colleagues who design, construct and distribute them. More than 180 TEEPACKers – many of them have learned their trade here from the bottom up – have met the challenge, taken responsibilities and remained loyal for decades. We’re curious to see what position you’re applying for.
