Insights into Snam's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Snam generated a total of 227,524 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 70.08% of Snam's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 26.51% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion. The remaining 3.41% was either treated using unspecified methods or not clearly categorized.
Snam's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Snam's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Snam reported a total waste generation of 227,524 metric tonnes, of which 70.08% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Snam is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Snam reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2021, Snam's total waste generation increased by 88.39%, including a 58.54% 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, Snam's waste recovery rate increased by 13.3%, including a 27.26% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Snam has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2023. However, the company has also steadily improved its waste recovery performance, suggesting that it is actively working to offset the environmental consequences of increased production through enhanced circularity efforts.

How Snam reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2021, Snam's total waste generation increased by 88.39%, including a 58.54% 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, Snam reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 12.86%, with a further 64.84% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Snam is generating more waste but has significantly reduced the share of hazardous materials, suggesting a partial decoupling of volume and toxicity that could reflect more responsible inputs or enhanced treatment.
