In 2023, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai generated a total of 12,377 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 87.3% of Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 12.7% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
In 2023, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai reported a total waste generation of 12,377 metric tonnes, of which 87.3% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Since 2020, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai's total waste generation increased by 44.1%, including a 14.16% 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, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai's waste recovery rate increased by 2.35%, including a 1.46% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai 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.
In 2023, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai generated a total of 12,377 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 6.39% of Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai's total waste generated of was classified as hazardous waste, characterized by properties such as toxicity, flammability, corrosiveness, or reactivity that may pose risks to human health, ecosystems, or the environment. 93.61% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.
Since 2020, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai's total waste generation increased by 44.1%, including a 14.16% 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, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai reduced the hazardousness of its waste by 29.96%, with a further 31.19% decline in 2023, suggesting a sustained and meaningful shift toward safer waste profiles and lower environmental impact.
Overall, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai 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.
In 2023, Universal Scientific Industrial Shanghai reported that 790 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 6.39% of its overall waste generation.
The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. Approximately 26.03% was managed through recovery methods, indicating a moderate integration of circular practices into its hazardous waste management. However, a significant share was still directed toward disposal, highlighting room for improvement in reducing the long-term impact of hazardous materials.
