38%

How much of Pan Ocean's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Pan Ocean reported a total waste generation of 31,489 metric tonnes, of which 37.79% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Pan Ocean is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.

Has Pan Ocean reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2020, Pan Ocean's total waste generation increased by 26.02%, including a 6.04% 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, Pan Ocean's waste recovery rate increased by 29.17%, including a 10.47% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.

Overall, Pan Ocean has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.

How Pan Ocean reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2020, Pan Ocean's total waste generation increased by 26.02%, including a 6.04% 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, Pan Ocean reduced the share of hazardous waste by 1.22%, then maintained stable levels in 2023, potentially marking the consolidation of earlier progress in eliminating high-risk materials from its waste stream.

Overall, Pan Ocean's growing waste output continues to pressure the environment, though past reductions in hazardousness have held steady, suggesting a neutralizing effect that should be actively monitored.

How does Pan Ocean treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Pan Ocean reported that 28,604 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 90.84% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 41.61% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.
