Trust has released its 2025-2026 Impact Report, highlighting lower foam use in packaging and a greater share of recycled plastic.

Average foam use per package fell from 1.3 grams to 0.5 grams, while recycled plastic rose to 41.1% of Trust's packaging from 29.2%. Plastic's share of total packaging weight also declined from 6.1% to 5.6%.

The accessories maker attributed the changes to packaging redesign, greater use of recycled materials and the replacement of components that are harder to recycle. It presented the results as part of a broader effort to reduce the environmental impact of its products without raising prices for consumers.

Trust also received an EcoVadis Gold medal for the fourth consecutive year, with a score of 81 out of 100. The company said this places it in the top 5% of all businesses assessed by EcoVadis and the top 2% in its industry.

The report outlines a wider sustainability programme covering product design, supplier oversight and waste reduction. During the financial year, Trust carried out 175 product life cycle assessments, giving it a clearer view of where emissions and material impacts sit across its portfolio.

That work is intended to guide decisions on materials, durability, repairability and energy use. Trust said most of its environmental footprint lies in the products themselves, making design choices central to reducing impact.

A consumer example featured prominently in the report was the Yvi+ Wireless Mouse, which uses recycled plastics and comes in plastic-free packaging while selling at the same price as comparable mice.
