In 2023, China Taiping conducted an environmental assessment and disclosed corporate waste management data in accordance with recognized sustainability reporting standards. The company provided a breakdown of its waste by type (hazardous vs non-hazardous) and treatment method (recovery vs disposal), enabling greater transparency into its waste handling and environmental practices.

In 2023, China Taiping generated a total of 45 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 4.68% of China Taiping's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 95.32% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2021, China Taiping's total waste generation decreased by 98.26%, with an additional 63.27% decline in 2023, suggesting a consistent and deliberate effort to minimize waste generation at the source.
Over the same period, China Taiping saw a long-term increase of 487.56% in hazardous waste share, but a 30.52% reduction in 2023, indicating a recent improvement that may reflect updated production inputs, enhanced treatment, or stricter controls.
Overall, while China Taiping is generating less waste and has made recent gains in reducing hazardousness, the long-term increase in harmful materials still casts doubt on the sustainability of its waste stream.
