Insights into Brembo's Waste Treatment Practices

In 2023, Brembo generated a total of 504,544 metric tonnes of waste.

Of this amount, 87.92% of Brembo's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 12.08% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.

Brembo's Waste Recovery Rate

88%

How much of Brembo's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Brembo reported a total waste generation of 504,544 metric tonnes, of which 87.92% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Brembo has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.

Has Brembo reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, Brembo's total waste generation increased by 27.36%, including a 9.46% increase in 2023, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.

Over the same period, Brembo's waste recovery rate increased by 3.22%, including a 3.16% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.

Overall, Brembo has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.

How Brembo reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2021, Brembo's total waste generation increased by 27.36%, including a 9.46% rise in 2023, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.

Over the same period, Brembo reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 2.02%, with a further 2.03% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.

Overall, Brembo 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.

How does Brembo treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Brembo reported that 25,223 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 5% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (82.26%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Brembo has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
