How Realtek Semiconductor reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2021, Realtek Semiconductor's total waste generation decreased by 32.35%, with an additional 19.55% decline in 2023, suggesting a consistent and deliberate effort to minimize waste generation at the source.

Over the same period, Realtek Semiconductor saw a long-term increase of 42.94% in hazardous waste share, but a 8.42% reduction in 2023, indicating a recent improvement that may reflect updated production inputs, enhanced treatment, or stricter controls.

Overall, while Realtek Semiconductor is generating less waste and has made recent gains in reducing hazardousness, the long-term increase in harmful materials still casts doubt on the sustainability of its waste stream.
