Insights into Siam Cement's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Siam Cement generated a total of 1,642,500 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 69.52% of Siam Cement's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 30.48% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Siam Cement's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Siam Cement's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Siam Cement reported a total waste generation of 1,642,500 metric tonnes, of which 69.52% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Siam Cement is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Siam Cement reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2019, Siam Cement's total waste generation increased by 5.72%, but declined by 5.92% in the year 2023, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.
Over the same period, Siam Cement's waste recovery rate declined by 18.79%, yet improved by 1.89% in 2023, pointing to a recent rebound or renewed focus on better waste treatment outcomes.
Overall, Siam Cement’s waste generation and recovery data show a mixed and inconsistent trend. A deeper analysis of the company's activities, industry benchmarks, and operational changes is needed to assess its sustainability performance more precisely.

How Siam Cement reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2019, Siam Cement's total waste generation increased by 5.72%, including a 5.92% rise in 2023, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste in Siam Cement's total output increased by 792.16%, including a further 75.77% rise in 2023, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, while Siam Cement has recently reduced waste output, its hazardous waste share continues to rise, raising concerns about treatment efficiency or growing reliance on harmful materials despite short-term volume improvements.
How does Siam Cement treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, Siam Cement reported that 107,335 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 6.53% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (85.53%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Siam Cement has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
