In 2025, Andersons generated a total of 35,688metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 17.79% of Andersons's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 82.21% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2025, Andersons reported a total waste generation of 35,688 metric tonnes, of which 17.79% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This low recovery rate highlights limited waste diversion and suggests that Andersons may be relying more heavily on landfill or incineration, underscoring opportunities for stronger resource recovery initiatives.a
Since 2023, Andersons's total waste generation increased by 8.54%, including a 14.44%increase in 2025, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.a
Over the same period, Andersons's waste recovery rate increased by 40.83%, but declined by 51.63% in 2025, potentially signaling volatility in waste treatment processes or shifting priorities in waste management.a
Overall, Andersons’s waste generation and recovery data show a mixed and inconsistent trend. A deeper analysis of the company's activities, industry benchmarks, and operational changes is needed to assess its sustainability performance more precisely.
In 2025, Andersons generated a total of 35,688 metric tonnes of waste.a

Since 2023, Andersons's total waste generation increased by 8.54%, including a 14.44% rise in 2025, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.a
Over the same period, Andersons reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 84.72%, with a further 68.22% decline in 2025, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.a
Overall, Andersons is generating more waste but has significantly reduced the share of hazardous materials, suggesting a partial decoupling of volume and toxicity that could reflect more responsible inputs or enhanced treatment.a
