More about MettaLife

As an eco-friendly vegan online marketplace, MettaLife is doing all the work so you don’t have to.

Each ethical brand that MettaLife carefully selects and has partnered with, has been chosen because they’re taking the right steps. Helping to create a more sustainable future.

We aim to make buying responsibly a natural way of life. To make it normal to consume in a way that’s easier on the environment.

We work with UK businesses who are already working hard to do good. These unique innovators and designers find better options for everyday problems. Brands who had a need for something and wanted to find the best possible way to create it. Better for all of us and our planet.

This is just the beginning of the journey to our Ethical Marketplace
