We have the greatest influence over reducing our own operational waste and are working toward our goal to reach zero waste in our operations by 2025.1

In 2024, HP reduced our nonhazardous solid waste by 5% in our operations, generating 23,000 tonnes2—1,100 tonnes less than in 2023. Widespread recycling and composting programs allowed us to achieve a waste diversion of 90%, up from 87%. We continued our focus on enhancing efforts to reuse office furniture across locations and to transition to permanent tableware in cafeteria operations, which supports our company-wide shift toward a circular economy of reuse, reduce, and recycle.

1 Zero-waste operations: Achieve 90% landfill diversion for non-hazardous solid waste across direct operations. The diversion methods include reuse, recycling, composting, and incineration (waste to energy recovery) solutions. Includes all HP-owned and -managed sites worldwide.

2 HP directly tracks nonhazardous waste data for the company’s highest energy–consuming sites globally (19,145 tonnes in 2024), which account for 81% of HP’s operational waste. These sites provide a representative sample of the main types of facilities in our portfolio from across the regions where we operate.
