In 2025, Croda International generated a total of 74,402metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 26.43% of Croda International's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 73.57% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2025, Croda International reported a total waste generation of 74,402 metric tonnes, of which 26.43% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This moderate level of recovery indicates that Croda International is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.a
Since 2022, Croda International's total waste generation increased by 10.84%, but remained relatively stable in 2025, suggesting that past growth in waste production may have recently plateaued.a
Over the same period, Croda International's waste recovery rate declined by 12.64%, with a further 9.37% drop in 2025, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.a
Overall, Croda International continues to produce more waste than in earlier years, while falling short on recovery. Recent stagnation in waste output offers little relief if recovery performance continues to weaken.
In 2025, Croda International generated a total of 74,402 metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 16.16% of Croda International'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.78.32% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.The remaining 5.51% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.a
Since 2022, Croda International's total waste generation rose by 10.84%, yet remained stable in 2025, suggesting recent efforts may have paused further escalation, though historical accumulation remains a concern.a
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste decreased by 13.61%, yet rose by 22.37% in 2025, potentially signaling operational variability, temporary setbacks, or less effective hazardous waste mitigation in the short term.a
Overall, Croda International's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.a
In 2025, Croda International reported that 12,025 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 16.16% of its overall waste generation.a
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods.Approximately 36.96% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.a
