How much of Vanguard International Semiconductor's waste is recycled or recovered?

In 2023, Vanguard International Semiconductor reported a total waste generation of 8,392 metric tonnes, of which 95.11% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Vanguard International Semiconductor has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.

Has Vanguard International Semiconductor reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?

Since 2019, Vanguard International Semiconductor's total waste generation increased by 29.25%, but declined by 9.82% in the year 2023, suggesting a potential shift toward more efficient material use or the early impact of waste reduction strategies.

Over the same period, Vanguard International Semiconductor's waste recovery rate increased by 1.28%, including a 1.59% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.

Overall, while Vanguard International Semiconductor has increased waste over the long term, recent reductions in waste generation and strong improvements in recovery indicate a strategic pivot toward better waste management and more sustainable practices.

How Vanguard International Semiconductor reduced the environmental impact of its waste?

Since 2019, Vanguard International Semiconductor's total waste generation increased by 29.25%, including a 9.82% 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, the share of hazardous waste decreased by 1.84%, yet rose by 6.12% in 2023, potentially signaling operational variability, temporary setbacks, or less effective hazardous waste mitigation in the short term.

Overall, Vanguard International Semiconductor'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 Vanguard International Semiconductor treat its hazardous waste?

In 2023, Vanguard International Semiconductor reported that 4,850 metric tonnes of its total waste output were classified as hazardous. This represents 57.8% of its overall waste generation.

The company treated this hazardous waste using a combination of methods. A majority (92.71%) was diverted from disposal through recovery-oriented treatments such as recycling or reuse. This suggests that Vanguard International Semiconductor has established processes to reduce the environmental burden of its most harmful waste streams.
