Fairtrade tea at work – make an impact
Did you know that Tea of Life was the first to introduce Fairtrade certified tea ranges for offices and the business market in the Netherlands? Our teas have been Fairtrade for many years and are served in meeting rooms, hospitality venues, schools, sports canteens and healthcare institutions.
A conscious choice for organisations that want to practise corporate social responsibility without compromising on taste or quality.
Fairtrade is known for ensuring fair wages, but it goes further than that: it also promotes environmentally friendly farming and supports farmers in making more sustainable choices.
What is Fairtrade tea?
Fairtrade stands for fair trade. It is an independent certification that guarantees farmers and workers a fair price for their products, safe and responsible working conditions, and an additional premium. This Fairtrade premium is invested locally in community-strengthening projects such as education, healthcare, infrastructure or sustainable farming tools.
For tea farmers, this means greater income security and the ability to invest in a better future for themselves, their families and their communities. In a sector where margins are low and working conditions are often under pressure, Fairtrade makes a tangible difference.
Choosing Fairtrade tea is not only a logical step in responsible business practices it’s also a clear statement of what your organisation stands for. You actively choose fair trade, sustainable supply chains and social impact. Want to know more about the label? Visit Fairtrade Netherlands for further information.
Fairtrade in the workplace: more than just a label
Fairtrade tea is a sustainable choice for businesses looking for ethically sourced tea at work. It’s a visible expression of corporate social responsibility and more than just a fair price.
The Fairtrade label not only ensures farmers receive a better income, it also encourages environmentally friendly farming practices. Harmful pesticides are avoided, and biodiversity is actively protected.
At Tea of Life, we combine fair trade with premium quality and carefully crafted production.

At Tea of Life, corporate social responsibility goes beyond offering Fairtrade tea. We believe in actively supporting the communities where our tea originates. That’s why we donate €0.25 for every kilo of tea sold to local projects through the Fair Grounds Foundation.
This independent non-profit organisation works to improve the living conditions of people living and working on and around tea plantations in Sri Lanka.
By choosing Tea of Life, your organisation directly contributes to these initiatives. Every cup of tea you serve helps support projects aligned with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on:
