Waste indicators, 2024
Higher recycling rate of municipal waste than in the previous year
The total amount of generated waste (excluding major mineral wastes) per capita slightly increased, while the amount of treated waste (excl. mineral) per capita remained at almost the same level. The recycling rate of municipal waste increased again after a decline the year before last.
Amounts of generated and treated waste (excluding major mineral wastes) per capita remained at a similar level
1,331 kg of all waste (excluding major mineral wastes) per capita was generated in Slovenia last year, which is 17 kg or 1% more than in the previous year. The increase was mainly the result of larger amounts of sludges, and paper and cardboard waste generated. 1,207 kg of waste per capita was treated, which is 2 kg less than in the previous year and the least in the last decade.
The highest growth in the recycling rate of municipal waste in the last decade
The recycling rate of municipal waste was just over 62%, almost 3 percentage points higher than in the previous year. This is mostly the result of a larger amount of recycled paper and cardboard waste, plastic waste, and animal and vegetal waste. Compared to 2014, the rate increased by more than 26 percentage points.
More than three quarters of all waste (excluding major mineral wastes) recycled
The recycling rate of waste in total (excluding major mineral wastes) was almost 78%, i.e. 3 percentage points higher than in the previous year. The landfill rate of all waste treated (excluding major mineral wastes) was just over 6%, i.e. almost 1 percentage point higher than in the previous year and 4 percentage points lower than a decade earlier.
