In 2023, Comerica generated a total of 3,557 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 67.74% of Comerica's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 32.26% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Comerica reported a total waste generation of 3,557 metric tonnes, of which 67.74% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Comerica is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2021, Comerica's total waste generation increased by 27.23%, including a 38.7% 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, Comerica's waste recovery rate increased by 19.77%, including a 25.4% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Comerica 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.
