LOOSE LEAF TEA STRAINER | PLASTIC-FREE | EASY TO CLEAN & GREAT TO TRAVEL WITH | REUSABLE & ECO-FRIENDLY

Save 10% when purchasing a 2-Pack of our Pipe Tea Strainers!

Did you know research shows that a single plastic tea bag leaches up to 11.6 billion microplastics and 3.1 billion nanoplastics into a cup of brewed tea*? 

The Loose Tea Company Stainless Steel Pipe Tea Strainer is a BPA-free tea strainer crafted from durable, dishwasher-safe, food-grade stainless steel meaning they are easy to clean. While the curved handle allows you to hang your stainer over any size of cup, mug, or bottle, it is also compact to travel with.

If you use loose leaf tea with finer granules, the cup strainer with finer mesh is the best option for you as it will capture even the smallest tea particles. See here.

Slide the stainer open, scoop your loose-leaf tea, close it, and hang it on your cup or bottle. This stainer works best with whole leaves of loose tea.

If you are ready to cut single-use plastic, paper or glue in your cup, we think you’ll love our food-grade stainless steel strainer. Happy Sustainable sipping!

Aussie Family behind the brand

Hi, I am Ellie, tea lover, mum, and founder of The Loose Tea Company.

My journey began with a simple but powerful goal: to bring people back to the ritual of real tea, tea that’s pure, sustainable, and made with intention. After years of cutting toxins and waste from my life (thanks to my other baby, Go For Zero), I wanted to create something that celebrated connection, with our health, with nature, and with each other, one cup at a time.

At The Loose Tea Company, our hand-blend high-quality, ethically sourced loose-leaf teas are good for you and gentle on the planet. Every ingredient is chosen for its flavour, function, and integrity, no artificial additives, no plastic packaging, and absolutely no compromise.

We believe tea should do more than taste good, it should make you feel good. So whether you’re looking for your morning pick-me-up or winding down with a calming brew, know that every sip supports a healthier you and a happier planet.

How to use

1. Open The Chamber and fill it with a 1 tsp of your favourite blend
2. Close and put into your cup
3. When the tea has reached your desired strength, take the infuser out
4. Sit back, relax and enjoy!

End of life

Reviews

Tea Strainer to gift.

"I actually purchased the tea Strainer to put in with a pamper gift basket with a tea cup and saucer and other treats. So I haven't actually used it myself however I loved the concept and that's why I purchased it. Communication and customer service with the company was excellent and the item arrived very quickly. No complaints from me,I'm a satisfied customer."

Deirdre A. (5/5)

Brillant idea!

"As someone who drinks herbal tea daily this strainer is fantastic. It allows for just the right amount of tea and sometimes I hang it on a glass to get that extra cup :o) Highly recommended!"

Carol S. (5/5)

Fantastic product

"Great way to enjoy single servings of loose leaf tea with minimal clean up. No microplastics and ease of use!! Would warmly recommend especially for the reasonable price."

Boris (5/5)

I have not received my order yet.

"Unfortunately I have not received my order yet. I have been communicating with Stephy and yet to hear the outcome. Ellie if you are able to follow up on this it would be very much appreciated. Thank you."

Pam (5/5)

Tea leaves

"Love the quality, customer service, and idea of reducing plastics from tea bags. But pretty messy to scrape out the used tea leaves from nooks and crannies before the next lot goes into your cup. I don't want to rinse the leaves down the sink. Maybe you can recommend an easy way I've missed?"

Lisa F. (3/5)

Loose tea strainer

"Happy with the strainer, which is very convenient and easy for single cups."

Andrew H. (5/5)

Doesn’t work for me.

"The reason why I gave this product 2 stars is because although they are quite well built there are not enough strainer holes in them. The back section should have holes too. By the time it has been allowed to strain the leaves enough the boiling hot water has turned loot warm. No amount of stirring or movement allows enough straining. Also the edges of the moving part are very sharp. One could easily cut themselves on them. Sorry but it’s a no from me. Not happy with this purchase at all. Just being honest."

Arron C. (2/5)

Pipe tea strainer

"I bought 4 tea strainers, they arrived quickly, cutely wrapped in eco friendly packaging, accompanied by a lovely little thank you gift of an organic tea leaf sample! (delicious). The tea strainers are exactly what you see online. Tidy, cute and clean. They brewed really well in our cup, cleanup was easy as shown, and stores neatly in cutlery drawer. Love them!"
