Insights into True's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, True generated a total of 554 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 10.06% of True's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 89.94% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
True's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of True's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, True reported a total waste generation of 554 metric tonnes, of which 10.06% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This low recovery rate highlights limited waste diversion and suggests that True may be relying more heavily on landfill or incineration, underscoring opportunities for stronger resource recovery initiatives.
Has True reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2020, True's total waste generation decreased by 20.07%, yet rose by 25.38% in 2023, potentially indicating a temporary operational shift or inconsistency in waste management outcomes.
Over the same period, True's waste recovery rate declined by 20.94%, with a further 22.48% drop in 2023, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.
Overall, True had been making progress in reducing waste, but recent increases in waste and simultaneous drops in recovery point to emerging risks or disruptions in waste management strategy.

How True reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2020, True's total waste generation fell by 20.07%, but rose by 25.38% in 2023 , potentially reflecting a temporary surge in activity or inconsistency in waste control strategies.
Over the same period, True reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 29.29%, with a further 40.83% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, True's waste and hazardousness trends are mixed or inconclusive. A more detailed review of its materials, industry standards, and operational changes would help clarify the net environmental impact of its waste strategy.
How does True treat its hazardous waste?
In 2023, True reported that 13 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 2.32% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (86.49%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that True has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
