This study does not specifically mention paper tee bags. It mentions food contact paper but that’s something different.

In Germany paper tea bags are made out of natural fiber without glue.

But I would really like to know if this paper tea bags also release hefty amounts of microplastics, if somebody has a study please link. That those plastic tea bags are microplastic hell should have been obvious from the start. The first time I saw them until forever I will avoid them.
