Toast Sales Group Sustainability Actions

Published annual social report

TOAST says it publishes a Social Conscience Report every year. The report covers progress on its commitments, the problems it has faced, and the next steps it plans to take. This gives readers a regular update on its sustainability work instead of a one-off statement. The brand also says the report is built around three areas: materials and making, waste reduction, and education.

Used more certified fibres

In its 2025 clothing collections, TOAST says 99% of items were made from natural fibres or cellulosic fibres from certified sources. Cellulosic fibres are plant-based fibres such as viscose or lyocell. The brand also says it aims to use organic, recycled, and responsibly sourced fibres when developing fabrics. This points to a focus on material choice as a main part of its sustainability work.

Ran repair and reuse work

TOAST says its Circle programme gives garments a second life through reuse and repair. It reported that 7,559 garments were diverted from landfill in the previous year, which was a 59% increase compared with 2024. The brand also says it uses locally sourced and deadstock materials, meaning leftover fabric that would otherwise go unused. These actions are aimed at cutting waste and keeping products in use for longer.

Audited suppliers for labour issues

TOAST says it works with suppliers that make most of its collections and that these relationships have lasted an average of nine years. It also says supplier audits check social compliance, including safe and fair working conditions. The brand says over half of its production spend in 2025 supported manufacturing in Europe. This suggests it is trying to keep closer oversight of where products are made and how workers are treated.

Supported charities and skills

TOAST says it makes long-term commitments to charities, mentors emerging makers, and runs workshops on repair skills. In 2025 it donated over £19,000 to charity partners, supporting circular practices and workforce diversity in the UK and global fashion industries. It also says more than 2,900 people attended workshops on craft and repair techniques. These activities link sustainability with education and community support.

Set environmental policy goals

Toyota, which appears in the provided material, says it has an environmental policy aimed at reducing its footprint and supporting sustainable development. It also says it has worked on environmental issues since the 1960s and created the Toyota Earth Charter in 1992. The company later added the Sustainability Fundamental Policy in 2020. These policies frame climate change, resource use, and biodiversity as key issues for the business.

Validated emissions targets

Toyota says its emissions reduction targets were validated by the Science Based Targets initiative, or SBTi, in September 2022. SBTi is a group that checks whether company climate targets match climate science. Toyota says its Scope 1 and 2 targets cover direct emissions from its own operations and purchased energy, while Scope 3 Category 11 covers emissions from the use of sold vehicles. This is a formal climate target check, not just a self-set goal.
