In 2025, Wanhua Chemical Group generated a total of 1,786,400metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 90.7% of Wanhua Chemical Group's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 9.3% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2025, Wanhua Chemical Group reported a total waste generation of 1,786,400 metric tonnes, of which 90.7% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This high recovery rate suggests that Wanhua Chemical Group has implemented strong circular economy practices and actively prioritizes sustainable waste management.a
Since 2021, Wanhua Chemical Group's total waste generation increased by 84.87%, including a 21.27%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, Wanhua Chemical Group's waste recovery rate declined by 1.41%, with a further 1.09% drop in 2025, underscoring a weakening in waste diversion performance and a potential drift away from circular waste strategies.a
