Love Eco has been established by Becky Barrett to provide a place where people can shop for products that reduce the impact we make on the world. A place where you can buy stylish, contemporary and practical things for you, your home and your family. Quite simply, we wanted to sell products that people would love but which were eco-friendly too. Fall in love with eco, Love Eco.

What is eco-friendly?
For us this has always meant anything that is, in some way, better for the world in which we live. It could be that a product is made from recycled materials, causes less environmental damage, is produced in a sustainable way or traded fairly. A product might be one, or all of these things. Sometimes it’s about balance, not everything can be perfect. What’s important though is that we should all be able to choose products that are well designed and well made and that offer better choices than than those often available on the high street.
What do we sell?
Love Eco sells a wide range of eco-friendly gifts and accessories for you, your family and your home, from linen and skincare to toys and soft furnishings. What’s more, our range is ever-expanding and, since we are always on the look out for exciting new products for you, it’s best to check back regularly so you don’t miss out.
Why buy from Love Eco?
We only stock products that we have touched, seen, tried or used. We make a point of understanding our suppliers – not just what they do and how they do it, but why they do it. Our suppliers are typically small scale producers who share our passion and values. We strive to ensure we offer you the best eco-friendly products that are available, in one place, so you don’t have to go looking for it.
We also try and reduce our own impact on the world as a business, by keeping packaging to a minimum, and using recyled or recyclable materials where possible.
What if there is something that Love Eco should be selling?
If you are a supplier, designer or customer of a product you think fits with the values of Love Eco then let us know. Just drop us a line at trythis@love-eco.co.uk
Will Love Eco change the world?
Probably not, but small changes can make a big difference so there is no reason not to start trying and the more people that choose the eco-friendly option, the bigger the difference we all make.
