Trust is committed to playing a part in achieving the UN 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). To maximise our impact, we must focus on certain goals. With this in mind, we focus on the following goals:
The consumer electronics industry’s linear economy must become less dependent on declining resources. Only by recycling these resources can we grow responsibly. Our efforts are focused on removing as much as possible, reducing where we can’t and recycling what is left.

Most impact takes place upstream in our value chain. We are engaging with our partners and suppliers to make fair and human changes.
Read moreWe are strongly reducing plastics used in our products and packaging and are making more use of materials from renewable resources. We are also aiming to improve the recyclability and optimize our logistics process to reduce CO₂ footprint. We will illustrate this by introducing an eco-rating system for our packaging and products. For example, a rating will be given based on the use of FSC certified cardboard or volume-optimized packaging free from plastics, foam and polystyrene. A higher rating will apply when packaging is the most environmentally friendly and the product itself is made of recycled materials.
