How Nuvoton Technology reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2021, Nuvoton Technology's total waste generation increased by 120.91%, including a 8.9% 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, Nuvoton Technology reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 67.39%, with a further 29.2% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.

Overall, Nuvoton Technology has increased waste over time but is now demonstrating meaningful progress in both reducing waste generation and lowering its hazardous content, potentially signaling a turning point toward sustainability.

How does Nuvoton Technology treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Nuvoton Technology reported that 407 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 21.15% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (95.09%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Nuvoton Technology has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
