Insights into Viatris's Waste Treatment Practices
In 2023, Viatris generated a total of 86 metric tonnes of waste.
Of this amount, 83% of Viatris's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 17% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.
Viatris's Waste Recovery Rate
How much of Viatris's waste is recycled or recovered?
In 2023, Viatris reported a total waste generation of 86 metric tonnes, of which 83% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting. This high recovery rate suggests that Viatris has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.
Has Viatris reduced its environmental waste footprint over time?
Since 2020, Viatris's total waste generation increased by 14.77%, including a 7.14% 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, Viatris's waste recovery rate increased by 12.16%, including a 7.79% rise in 2023, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.
Overall, Viatris 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.

How Viatris reduced the environmental impact of its waste?
Since 2020, Viatris's total waste generation increased by 14.77%, including a 7.14% 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, Viatris's hazardous waste share remained stable both over the long term and in 2023, reflecting consistent but static performance in managing hazardous materials.
Overall, Viatris is producing more waste without a change in hazardousness, implying that operational growth is not being accompanied by stronger safeguards against environmental and human health risks.
