Frequently Asked Questions on Bulk Tea Export

What is the standard packaging used for bulk tea shipments from India?

Bulk tea is packed in bulk multiwall paper sacks with food-grade liner, configured to buyer specification.

How much tea fits in a 20ft and 40ft ocean container?

Container payload depends on tea density, packing configuration, and carrier/road-weight limits. Review our specialized FCL container load tea guide for detailed freight economics. Indicatively, a 20ft GP container holds approximately 10 to 12 MT for granular CTC (or 6.5 to 8 MT for volumetric Orthodox leaf), while a 40ft High Cube accommodates approximately 20 to 24 MT for CTC (or 14 to 18 MT for Orthodox leaf).

Can Byahut coordinate trial bulk shipments before executing full container contracts?

Yes. We accommodate LCL (Less than Container Load) trial consignments starting from 1 Metric Ton on palletized terms, allowing commercial buyers to evaluate blend quality and cupping performance before committing to FCL scale.
