Our story

The founder

I didn’t set out to become a business owner. I was simply trying to build a life that made sense for my family and for the planet. I grew up on the outskirts of London spending much of my childhood outdoors with my three brothers. My dad gave me a lasting respect for nature and alongside a degree in Psychology, my upbringing shaped my belief that small, collective actions can create real change. I spent over ten years working in healthcare with the NHS and the Alzheimer’s Society. I loved the purpose, but did not feel I fitted in. Life’s inevitable curveballs came my way, and my anxiety deepened about the chemicals I brought into my home. I wanted safer, healthier, refillable products, but finding honest, affordable options seemed impossible.

So, I created my own.

In 2021, Arborfill began with 2,000 glass bottles and a bike trailer, delivering refills in the snow. This little idea has blossomed and helped me rebuild my confidence and find purpose outside motherhood I run the business alongside raising my three children, because like many parents, I need solutions that work in real life.

Arborfill isn’t just a business. It’s a better way of life for you, your family, and the planet.

Why Arborfill is different

We believe eco living should feel doable, not daunting.

There is so much information out there about sustainability, toxins, plastics, ingredients and “better” choices that it can quickly become overwhelming — especially when you are already juggling work and family life.

Arborfill was built to simplify that.

We carefully choose products that are refillable, practical, effective and kinder to both your home and the planet. From everyday cleaning essentials to personal care and green cleaning ingredients, everything is selected with real life in mind.

That means:

  • Honest products without unnecessary harsh ingredients
  • Refillable options to reduce single-use plastic
  • Affordable choices priced for everyday families
    Effective products that genuinely work
  • Low-tox living without pressure or perfection

No guilt or unrealistic standards.

Just gentle, practical support for creating a healthier home in a way that feels manageable.
