In 2024, Quanta Computer generated a total of 82,592metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 88.57% of Quanta Computer's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 11.43% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2024, Quanta Computer reported a total waste generation of 82,592 metric tonnes, of which 88.57% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This high recovery rate suggests that Quanta Computer has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.a
Since 2021, Quanta Computer's total waste generation decreased by 15.97%, yet rose by 9.49% in 2024, potentially indicating a temporary operational shift or inconsistency in waste management outcomes.a
Over the same period, Quanta Computer's waste recovery rate declined by 5.08%, with a further 4.33% drop in 2024, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.a
Overall, Quanta Computer had been making progress in reducing waste, but recent increases in waste and simultaneous drops in recovery point to emerging risks or disruptions in waste management strategy.
In 2024, Quanta Computer generated a total of 82,592 metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 2.07% of Quanta Computer's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment.97.93% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.a
Since 2021, Quanta Computer's total waste generation fell by 15.97%, but rose by 9.49% in 2024, potentially reflecting a temporary surge in activity or inconsistency in waste control strategies.a
Over the same period, Quanta Computer saw a long-term increase of 1.48% in hazardous waste share, but a 15.43% reduction in 2024, indicating a recent improvement that may reflect updated production inputs, enhanced treatment, or stricter controls.a
Overall, Quanta Computer's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.a
In 2024, Quanta Computer reported that 1,706 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 2.07% of its overall waste generation.a
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods.A majority (64.1%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Quanta Computer has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.a
