How much of Mapfre's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Mapfre reported a total waste generation of 3,567 metric tonnes, of which 91.56% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Mapfre has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.

Has Mapfre reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, Mapfre's total waste generation increased by 16.45%, including a 7.5% 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, Mapfre's waste recovery rate declined by 3.66%, with a further 1.11% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.

Overall, Mapfre is generating more waste while simultaneously backsliding on recovery efforts, both in the short and long term. This dual negative trend raises concerns about the company’s waste management priorities and its alignment with sustainability goals.

Since 2021, Mapfre's total waste generation increased by 16.45%, including a 7.5% 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, Mapfre reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 92.11%, with a further 24.03% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.

Overall, Mapfre 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.

How does Mapfre treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Mapfre reported that 178 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 4.99% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (84.12%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Mapfre has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
