In 2023, Coca-Cola Femsa generated a total of 178,220 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 97.96% of Coca-Cola Femsa's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 2.04% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Coca-Cola Femsa reported a total waste generation of 178,220 metric tonnes, of which 97.96% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Coca-Cola Femsa has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Since 2021, Coca-Cola Femsa's total waste generation increased by 49.01%, including a 37.34% 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, Coca-Cola Femsa's waste recovery rate remained stable both in the long term and in 2023, suggesting limited progress, or consistent recovery performance, without major shifts in strategy.
Overall, Coca-Cola Femsa's waste generation is rising, yet its recovery rates have remained stagnant. This suggests that the company’s operational growth is not being matched by parallel improvements in its waste treatment practices, potentially increasing its environmental footprint.
In 2023, Coca-Cola Femsa generated a total of 178,220 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 0.95% of Coca-Cola Femsa'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. 99.05% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2021, Coca-Cola Femsa's total waste generation increased by 49.01%, including a 37.34% 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, Coca-Cola Femsa reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 44.68%, with a further 47.86% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Coca-Cola Femsa 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.
