In 2023, Finning International generated a total of 35,050 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 46.63% of Finning International's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 53.38% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Finning International reported a total waste generation of 35,050 metric tonnes, of which 46.63% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Finning International is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2019, Finning International's total waste generation increased by 31.98%, including a 9.55% 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, Finning International's waste recovery rate increased by 6.75%, including a 11.16% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Finning International 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.
In 2023, Finning International generated a total of 35,050 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 46.47% of Finning 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. 53.53% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2019, Finning International's total waste generation increased by 31.98%, including a 9.55% 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, Finning International reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 2.73%, with a further 13.43% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Finning International 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.
In 2023, Finning International reported that 16,288 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 46.47% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 22.03% 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.
