In 2023, Falabella generated a total of 128,286metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 41.9% of Falabella's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 58.1% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2023, Falabella reported a total waste generation of 128,286 metric tonnes, of which 41.9% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This moderate level of recovery indicates that Falabella is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.a
Since 2021, Falabella's total waste generation remained relatively flat, but increased by 2.6% in 2023, potentially signaling a short-term operational expansion or reduced focus on waste prevention.a
Over the same period, Falabella's waste recovery rate increased by 28.22%, including a 36.12% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.a
Overall, Falabella’s waste generation and recovery data show a mixed and inconsistent trend. A deeper analysis of the company's activities, industry benchmarks, and operational changes is needed to assess its sustainability performance more precisely.
In 2023, Falabella generated a total of 128,286 metric tonnes of waste.a

Since 2021, Falabella's total waste generation remained relatively stable, but increased by 2.6% in 2023, potentially indicating a short-term uptick in output or weakened controls over material efficiency.a
Over the same period, Falabella reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 21.08%, with a further 18.98% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.a
Overall, Falabella'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 2023, Falabella reported that 1,251 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 0.98% of its overall waste generation.a
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods.Only 6.24% 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 Falabella’s current hazardous waste practices.a
