How much of Ratch Group's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Ratch Group reported a total waste generation of 31,673 metric tonnes, of which 68.32% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Ratch Group is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.

Has Ratch Group reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2021, Ratch Group's total waste generation increased by 485.58%, including a 3.33% 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, Ratch Group's waste recovery rate declined by 26.7%, with a further 29.77% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.

Overall, Ratch Group 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.
