Insights into Kubota's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Kubota generated a total of 102,000 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 66.67% of Kubota's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 11.76% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion. The remaining 21.57% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.
Kubota's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Kubota's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Kubota reported a total waste generation of 102,000 metric tonnes, of which 66.67% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Kubota is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Kubota reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2019, Kubota's total waste generation decreased by 9.73%, including a further 8.93% drop in 2023, highlighting a consistent and deliberate reduction in waste production over time.
Over the same period, Kubota's waste recovery rate declined by 4.64%, and then remained stable in 2023, possibly indicating that earlier setbacks have leveled off without signs of active improvement.
Overall, Kubota’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.
