Insights into Kajima's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Kajima generated a total of 1,807,086 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 97.01% of Kajima's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 2.99% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Kajima's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Kajima's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Kajima reported a total waste generation of 1,807,086 metric tonnes, of which 97.01% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Kajima has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Has Kajima reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2019, Kajima's total waste generation decreased by 37.95%, including a further 52.01% drop in 2023, highlighting a consistent and deliberate reduction in waste production over time.
Over the same period, Kajima's waste recovery rate declined by 1.05%, with a further 1.66% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.
Overall, while Kajima has successfully reduced its total waste generation, its waste recovery efforts have also declined. This pattern could suggest a shift in strategy away from circular treatment methods or a lag in recovery infrastructure development.
