Traditionally the toy industry has used plastic in manufacturing due to its safety, durability and ability to conform to moulds and shapes. Through Playsponsible, we are focusing on opportunities to create more sustainable options within our product lifecycle to reduce impact on the planet.
We are continuously exploring opportunities to reduce the use of virgin materials in toys through innovative methods or by incorporating recycled or responsibly-sourced content. Our goal is to maintain the best play experience while also finding ways to reduce our impact on the environment.
Packaging is part of the entire unboxing experience of our toys and games. We have made a commitment to a 50% reduction in the use of plastic in packaging in 2025 and are actively looking for approaches to reduce packaging and use single-use plastic alternatives. Our innovative engineers and designers are also coming up with ideas to integrate toy and game packaging into the play experience to extend the use and maximize the fun.
Toys often spend a long time in your home – sometimes being handed down to a sibling or stored for the next generation. But, someday you might want to clear out your much-loved toys. We partner with international recycling leader TerraCycle in the US to give you the chance to recycle your once-cherished toys and games*. Both packaging and toys can be sent through to TerraCycle to be recycled into other products from benches to playground equipment.

The Rubik’s Re-Cube launched in 2023 and is the same 3x3 cube millions know and love, but this version is created with sustainability in mind. The cube is made from 100% post-industrial recycled plastic. Now that the team has successfully implemented recycled ABS into this form factor, we are rolling 20% of recycled plastic into all Rubik’s Cubes going forward.

Our PAW Patrol basic vehicles were targeted for a sustainability update in 2023 given they represent a such a large volume of toys sold. Our goal was to drastically reduce the use of plastic in this item. We now use up to 80% recycled plastic in the product and the packaging is plastic free because we were able to remove the blister and replace plastic ties with paper ties.
