In 2024, Yuhan 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) | 2024 | 2023 | 2022 | 2021-2019 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Total Waste Generated | 1,751a | 1,686a | 1,490a | |
Total Waste Recovered | 999a | 798a | 740a | |
Total Hazardous Waste Generated | 166a | 164a | 84a | |
Non-Hazardous Waste Disposed | N/A | N/A | N/A |

In 2024, Yuhan generated a total of 1,751metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 57.05% of Yuhan's total waste generated was recovered through methods such as recycling, reuse, or composting, while 99.54% was disposed of through landfilling, incineration, or combustion.a
In 2024, Yuhan reported a total waste generation of 1,751 metric tonnes, of which 57.05% was recovered through recycling, reuse, or composting.This moderate level of recovery indicates that Yuhan is taking steps toward improving its waste diversion practices, though there is still room to enhance recycling and recovery efforts.a
Since 2022, Yuhan's total waste generation increased by 17.52%, including a 3.86%increase in 2024, 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, Yuhan's waste recovery rate increased by 14.88%, including a 20.54% rise in 2024, indicating growing emphasis on circularity and improved operational practices for diverting waste from disposal.a
Overall, Yuhan has seen a consistent rise in waste generation both over the long term and in the year 2024. 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 2024, Yuhan generated a total of 1,751 metric tonnes of waste.a
Of this amount, 9.48% of Yuhan'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.90.46% was identified as non-hazardous waste, generally considered less harmful and subject to lighter regulatory controls.a
Since 2022, Yuhan's total waste generation increased by 17.52%, including a 3.86% rise in 2024, 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, Yuhan saw a long-term increase of 68.16% in hazardous waste share, but a 2.54% reduction in 2024, indicating a recent improvement that may reflect updated production inputs, enhanced treatment, or stricter controls.a
Overall, Yuhan'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.a
