Insights into Daewoo E&C's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Daewoo E&C generated a total of 995,924 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 99.94% of Daewoo E&C's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 0.06% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Daewoo E&C's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Daewoo E&C's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Daewoo E&C reported a total waste generation of 995,924 metric tonnes, of which 99.94% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Daewoo E&C has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Has Daewoo E&C reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, Daewoo E&C's total waste generation increased by 28.88%, including a 57.26% 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, Daewoo E&C'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, Daewoo E&C'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.

How Daewoo E&C reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2021, Daewoo E&C's total waste generation increased by 28.88%, including a 57.26% 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, Daewoo E&C reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 99.29%, with a further 99.95% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Daewoo E&C 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 Daewoo E&C treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, Daewoo E&C reported that 0 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 0% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (100%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Daewoo E&C has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
