In 2024, Raia Drogasil S/A generated a total of 29,542 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 38.02% of Raia Drogasil S/A's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 48.25% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion. The remaining 13.73% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.
In 2024, Raia Drogasil S/A reported a total waste generation of 29,542 metric tonnes, of which 38.02% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Raia Drogasil S/A is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Since 2021, Raia Drogasil S/A's total waste generation increased by 289.91%, including a 12.71% increase in 2024, 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, Raia Drogasil S/A's waste recovery rate declined by 37.65%, with a further 12.42% drop in 2024, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.
Overall, Raia Drogasil S/A is generating more waste while simultaneously backsliding on recovery efforts, both in the short and long term. This dual negative trend raises concerns about the company’s waste management priorities and its alignment with sustainability goals.
