Honest about our impact
We're not claiming to be a net-zero company. We're a small supplement retailer working to reduce our environmental footprint where we genuinely can — and being honest about where we can't.

Our commitments
What we're actually doing — not aspirations, not greenwashing.
Minimal packaging
LiveWe ship in the smallest box that fits your order. No filler, no excessive wrapping. Cardboard is 100% recyclable.
Recyclable materials
LiveAll outer packaging is fully recyclable. We're phasing out plastic void fill — replaced with kraft paper shredding from 2024.
Plastic reduction programme
In progressWe're auditing all product lines for single-use plastic. Glass bottles and card-backed blisters are being prioritised for new products.
Consolidated shipping
LiveWe batch-consolidate orders to maximise van fill rates. Our UK courier partners are transitioning their fleet to EVs.
UK-first sourcing
OngoingWe prioritise UK and European manufacturers over intercontinental supply chains where quality is equivalent. Shorter logistics = lower emissions.
No animal testing
PolicyWe never test on animals and don't stock products from manufacturers who do. Third-party safety testing uses in vitro and clinical methods only.
Where we're being honest
Greenwashing damages trust. These are the areas where we have limitations we haven't solved yet.
- →
Some supplement products inherently require plastic caps and seals — we can't eliminate these yet.
- →
We currently don't offer a product return/packaging collection scheme, but we're exploring options.
- →
Our supplement range includes fish oil products — we source from certified sustainable fisheries but acknowledge the environmental cost.
- →
Long-distance air freight is occasionally used for out-of-stock critical products — we don't claim to be zero-emission.
