A Smarter Way to Keep Your Food Fresher for Longer
Backed by science, designed for your fridge.
We are on a mission to tackle one of the biggest everyday problems in homes across the UK:
FOOD WASTE
Every week, we toss out perfectly good food, and our money with it. Harmful gases, excess moisture, bacteria, and odours all build up in your fridge, causing your fresh produce to go off before you’ve had the chance to enjoy it.
Shelf Life has created a 100% natural filter that tackles all of that. Just pop it into your fridge and let it get to work, helping to extend the shelf life of your fresh produce by up to 3 weeks, reduce food waste, and save up to £800 a year.


Every year, the UK wastes
17.5 million tonnes of food.Households are responsible for 60% of this.
This is costing families up to £800+ a year.

How it Works
Ethylene is the invisible problem in your fridge. This gas is released by fruits and veg as they ripen, but when it builds up, it causes your fresh produce to go off before you’ve had the chance to enjoy it.
We've made the solution simple.
Just stick our filters to the side of the fridge, on a shelf or in the crisper drawer.
It immediately starts absorbing ethylene gas, excess moisture, odours, and bacteria.
That’s it. No batteries, no tech, no chemicals.
Keeping your fruit & veg fresher for longer.

A science led approach
At Shelf Life, our mission is simple: help people waste less, save more, and make small changes that add up to a big impact. But we knew that if we wanted to truly tackle household food waste, we needed more than just a great idea, we needed evidence.
That’s why we partnered with the University of Nottingham, a top UK university with world-leading research in food science and innovation.
Their team conducted independent lab testing using advanced equipment to measure how effectively Shelf Life’s fridge filter absorbs ethylene gas - the natural compound that causes fruit and vegetables to spoil.
We can confirm that our filter’s contain minerals that are excellent for absorbing ethylene gas and significantly reducing concentration levels, which helps to slow down the spoilage process and keep fresh produce lasting longer.
