In 2025, UWC conducted an environmental assessment and disclosed corporate waste management data in accordance with recognized sustainability reporting standards.The company provided a breakdown of its waste by type (hazardous vs non-hazardous) and treatment method (recovery vs disposal), enabling greater transparency into its waste handling and environmental practices.
| Metric (tonnes) | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | 2022-2019 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Total Waste Generated | 1,102a | 748.9a | 733.9a | |
Total Waste Recovered | 1,093.53a | 747.1a | 733.3a | |
Total Hazardous Waste Generated | 8.47a | 1.8a | 0.6a | |
Non-Hazardous Waste Disposed | N/A | N/A | N/A |

In 2025, UWC generated a total of 1,102metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 99.23% of UWC's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 0.77% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2025, UWC reported a total waste generation of 1,102 metric tonnes, of which 99.23% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This high recovery rate suggests that UWC has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.a
Since 2023, UWC's total waste generation increased by 50.16%, including a 47.15%increase in 2025, indicating a persistent upward trend that may reflect scaling operations, inefficiencies in resource use, or a lack of effective waste minimization practices.a
Over the same period, UWC's waste recovery rate remained stable both in the long term and in 2025, suggesting limited progress, or consistent recovery performance, without major shifts in strategy.a
Overall, UWC's waste generation is rising, yet its recovery rates have remained stagnant. This suggests that the company’s operational growth is not being matched by parallel improvements in its waste treatment practices, potentially increasing its environmental footprint.
In 2025, UWC generated a total of 1,102 metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 0.77% of UWC'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.99.23% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.a
Since 2023, UWC's total waste generation increased by 50.16%, including a 47.15% rise in 2025, reflecting a persistent upward trend that could be linked to operational growth, inefficient material use, or limited investment in waste prevention systems.a
Over the same period, the share of hazardous waste in UWC's total output increased by 840.13%, including a further 219.78% rise in 2025, suggesting a troubling upward shift toward more environmentally harmful waste streams that could raise compliance costs and environmental risks.a
Overall, UWC 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.a
