Playlife is a fashion company based in Treviso, Italy. The company is owned by the Benetton family and is the sporting label of the clothes manufacturer.

Playlife put their name to the engine supply of Formula One team Benetton's cars from 1998 to 2000. Playlife engines were re-badged Renault engines that had been acquired by Mecachrome in 1998 and Supertec in 1999 and 2000.
