Insights into Microchip Technology's Waste Treatment Practices

In 2023, Microchip Technology generated a total of 7,103 metric tonnes of waste.

Of this amount, 75.36% of Microchip Technology's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 24.64% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.

Microchip Technology's Waste Recovery Rate

75%

How much of Microchip Technology's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Microchip Technology reported a total waste generation of 7,103 metric tonnes, of which 75.36% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Microchip Technology has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.

Has Microchip Technology reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2018, Microchip Technology's total waste generation increased by 86.47%, including a 6.95% 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, Microchip Technology's waste recovery rate increased by 79.86%, while holding steady in 2023, suggesting past gains in recovery performance have stabilized.

Overall, Microchip Technology’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.
