In 2024, HMM conducted an environmental assessment and disclosed corporate waste management data in accordance with recognized sustainability reporting standards.The company provided a breakdown of its waste by type (hazardous vs non-hazardous) and treatment method (recovery vs disposal), enabling greater transparency into its waste handling and environmental practices.
| Metric (tonnes) | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021-2019 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Total Waste Generated | 24,463a | 25,265a | 22,508a | |
Total Waste Recovered | 22,554a | 22,307a | 20,298a | |
Total Hazardous Waste Generated | 23,523a | 24,041a | 21,567a | |
Non-Hazardous Waste Disposed | 369a | 506a | 374a |

In 2024, HMM generated a total of 24,463metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 92.2% of HMM's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 7.51% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2024, HMM reported a total waste generation of 24,463 metric tonnes, of which 92.2% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This high recovery rate suggests that HMM has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.a
Since 2022, HMM's total waste generation increased by 8.69%, but declined by 3.17% in the year 2024, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.a
Over the same period, HMM's waste recovery rate increased by 2.23%, including a 4.42% rise in 2024, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.a
Overall, while HMM 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.
In 2024, HMM generated a total of 24,463 metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 96.16% of HMM'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.3.54% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.a
Since 2022, HMM's total waste generation rose by 8.69%, but dropped by 3.17% in 2024, indicating a possible turning point driven by improved waste-reduction practices or production slowdowns.a
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste remained relatively flat but increased by 1.05% in 2024, which may indicate a recent uptick in high-risk waste production, potentially linked to material sourcing or product mix.a
Overall, HMM'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
