Insights into Pegatron's Waste Treatment Practices

In 2023, Pegatron generated a total of 51,472 metric tonnes of waste.

Of this amount, 90.22% of Pegatron's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 9.78% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.

Pegatron's Waste Recovery Rate

90%

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

In 2023, Pegatron reported a total waste generation of 51,472 metric tonnes, of which 90.22% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Pegatron has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.

Has Pegatron reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2019, Pegatron's total waste generation decreased by 33.23%, including a further 12.86% drop in 2023, highlighting a consistent and deliberate reduction in waste production over time.

Over the same period, Pegatron's waste recovery rate declined by 6.15%, with a further 1.16% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.

Overall, while Pegatron has successfully reduced its total waste generation, its waste recovery efforts have also declined. This pattern could suggest a shift in strategy away from circular treatment methods or a lag in recovery infrastructure development.
