For Independent Tea Producers

More Blends. More Creativity. Less Label Waste.

Whether you're hand-blending herbal infusions, producing speciality loose-leaf teas or creating bespoke tea collections for other brands, your packaging is an important part of your product.

But managing dozens of flavours, pack sizes and seasonal designs can become complicated when every change means ordering another batch of pre-printed labels.

Epson ColorWorks colour label printers allow you to produce professional labels as you need them. Print a short run for a new blend, update a design or prepare labels for a customer-specific order, without holding large quantities of pre-printed labels for every variation.

Small Runs Shouldn't Mean Big Compromises.
