Eco-Friendly Products: 35+ Bestsellers for 2025 – Shopify Summary

As climate change awareness grows, consumers increasingly prioritize sustainability when making purchases. According to studies, 64% of consumers consider sustainability a key factor, and 80% are willing to pay a premium—up to 9.7% more—for products that are eco-friendly, locally sourced, and produced with low-carbon footprints. This makes selling eco-friendly products not only an ethical choice but also a lucrative business opportunity.

What Are Eco-Friendly Products?

Eco-friendly products are designed and manufactured to minimize environmental impact throughout their lifecycle—encompassing production, packaging, transportation, use, and disposal. Many hold third-party certifications verifying their sustainable claims. They typically share traits such as:

• Ethical manufacturing and fair trade practices
• Use of sustainable, recycled, or reclaimed materials
• Low environmental impact and waste reduction
• Carbon removal investments
• Zero-waste alternatives to conventional products
• B Corp or other recognized certifications
• Natural, organic, and plant-based ingredients

These products span categories from home office essentials to ethical fashion and clean foods.
