HOBOKEN, N.J., April 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Celestial Seasonings is proud to announce a significant step forward in its commitment to improving the sustainability of its packaging. The global specialty tea brand will no longer include plastic overwrap on the boxes of more than 130 teas, a move estimated to eliminate up to 165,000 pounds of plastic waste from landfills in 2024 alone1. The removal of the overwrap is the equivalent of approximately 16,000 miles of plastic, or the distance it would take Sleepytime Bear, Celestial Seasonings' beloved mascot, to travel from Boulder, Colorado to Australia and back.
