WELCOME TO URBAN ETHOS!
Urban Ethos source and develop eco-conscious products from around the world. Our mission is to ‘Change Consumer Habits’ by being a market leader in providing a range of products that enhance the choices we make to waste less, be more environmentally conscious and to lead healthier lives.
What do we do?
Urban Ethos helps you make great choices with a range of everyday consumable products that are developed with our planet in mind.
Why do we do it?
Climate change is inevitable but we can make a difference. It is important to make the right choices when consuming and Urban Ethos feel that a starting point to protecting our planet is by using products that are made with the environment front of mind and being more conscious about what we consume in our daily lives.
Our promise to you
We’ll bring you the best range of ethically responsible brands that meet the highest possible standards of eco-certification, making it easy for you to feel comfortable about your choices.
A note from our Founder.
Having spent more than 20 years supplying major supermarkets, we had the opportunity to see first-hand how many products are sold to consumers that have little regard for our environment or our precious resources.
Witnessing this and feeling more and more anxious as the years went by, we decided to push as hard as we could to bring meaningful change to everyday household products and provide consumers with the opportunity to choose better and participate in changing outdated consumer habits in a meaningful way.
Our small team then focused on a plan to find solutions for everyday household consumables…products that are part of everyday life but are often taken for granted and need a major rethink to minimise the damage they do to our environment. A journey into understanding environmental impacts, carbon footprints, ethical ingredients and manufacturing processes lead us on an amazing path of discovery, where we quickly learned “eco” doesn’t always mean better.
We found that many everyday household products often started out with the best of intentions, but sadly many of these products have deteriorated over time into compromised alternatives that are no longer made with any ethical considerations.
With this understanding we then set about making sure our products always met the highest possible levels of ethical certification, while also considering how they are made, who makes them, what ingredients are used, where they come from, how they perform and most importantly, what long term impact they will have on our environment.
We also quickly learned that new environmental solutions are sometimes not perfect. They may require a degree of adjustment or patience to get the expected outcomes we have become used to from less environmentally responsible products. Our range is a constant evolution. We continue searching for new ways to achieve better outcomes that improve our products and as new technologies develop, we will continue to improve, update and expand our range.
We are excited to be among the builders of a community of environmentally conscious consumers who are just as passionate as we are about making a meaningful difference.
– Michael, Founder
