Naver's Waste Recovery Rate

23%

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

In 2023, Naver reported a total waste generation of 279 metric tonnes, of which 22.94% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This low recovery rate highlights limited waste diversion and suggests that Naver may be relying more heavily on landfill or incineration, underscoring opportunities for stronger resource recovery initiatives.

Has Naver reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, Naver's total waste generation increased by 92.41%, but declined by 1.41% in the year 2023, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.

Over the same period, Naver's waste recovery rate declined by 4.97%, with a further 15.69% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.

Overall, Naver has historically generated more waste, and although the most recent figures show a drop in output, declining recovery rates suggest that the company’s waste management systems may be weakening or under-resourced.
