Insights into Toyota Motor's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2022, Toyota Motor generated a total of 233,000 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 69.53% of Toyota Motor's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 30.47% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Toyota Motor's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Toyota Motor's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2022, Toyota Motor reported a total waste generation of 233,000 metric tonnes, of which 69.53% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This moderate level of recovery indicates that Toyota Motor is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.
Has Toyota Motor reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2020, Toyota Motor's total waste generation increased by 15.92%, including a 4.48% increase in 2022, 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, Toyota Motor's waste recovery rate declined by 9.84%, yet improved by 2% in 2022, pointing to a recent rebound or renewed focus on better waste treatment outcomes.
Overall, Toyota Motor’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 Toyota Motor reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2020, Toyota Motor's total waste generation increased by 15.92%, including a 4.48% rise in 2022, 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 Toyota Motor's total output increased by 62.95%, including a further 4.97% rise in 2022, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.
Overall, Toyota Motor has seen a continuous rise in both total waste and hazardous waste over time, signaling a worsening environmental impact that may require urgent reassessment of material sourcing, production processes, or waste mitigation strategies.
