Insights into Silicon Laboratories's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Silicon Laboratories generated a total of 254 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 74.9% of Silicon Laboratories's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 25.1% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Silicon Laboratories's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Silicon Laboratories's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Silicon Laboratories reported a total waste generation of 254 metric tonnes, of which 74.9% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Silicon Laboratories is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Silicon Laboratories reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, Silicon Laboratories's total waste generation increased by 5.25%, but declined by 25.26% 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, Silicon Laboratories's waste recovery rate increased by 7.34%, including a 12.32% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, while Silicon Laboratories has increased waste over the long term, recent reductions in waste generation and strong improvements in recovery indicate a strategic pivot toward better waste management and more sustainable practices.
