34%

How much of DiaSorin's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, DiaSorin reported a total waste generation of 3,529 metric tonnes, of which 33.62% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that DiaSorin is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.

Has DiaSorin reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, DiaSorin's total waste generation increased by 13.28%, but declined by 10.21% in the year 2023, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.

Over the same period, DiaSorin's waste recovery rate increased by 35.4%, including a 25.08% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.

Overall, while DiaSorin has increased waste over the long term, recent reductions in waste generation and strong improvements in recovery indicate a strategic pivot toward better waste management and more sustainable practices.

How DiaSorin reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2021, DiaSorin's total waste generation increased by 13.28%, including a 10.21% 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, DiaSorin reduced the share of hazardous waste by 8.98%, then maintained stable levels in 2023, potentially marking the consolidation of earlier progress in eliminating high-risk materials from its waste stream.

Overall, DiaSorin'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.

How does DiaSorin treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, DiaSorin reported that 544 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 15.41% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Only 6.88% of hazardous waste was recovered, meaning the vast majority was treated through disposal methods such as landfilling or incineration. This raises concerns about the environmental and health risks associated with DiaSorin’s current hazardous waste practices.
