# Onspot and UN Sustainable Development Goal #12

Written by [Ulrik Andersson](https://intblog.onspot.com/en-us/news-press-releases/author/ulrik-andersson), Jun 28, 2023 6:30:00 PM

We work on innovation to enhance efficiency and minimize the amount of waste in our processes, as well as to increase the share of recycling of our waste products. Read more here.

Onspot, being a member of [VBG Group](https://vbggroup.com/en/sustainability/overview2/), is working with the 17 Susatinable Developement Goals of UN. Here you can read some more on how we work with the following goal.

GOAL 12: Responsible Consumtion and Production. Target: 12.5

![UN Goal 12](https://intblog.onspot.com/hs-fs/hubfs/News%20and%20%20Press/UN/UN%20Goal%2012.png?width=436&height=436&name=UN%20Goal%2012.png)

 

At Onspot, we prioritize responsible consumption and production as part of our commitment to the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. To achieve this goal, we focus on innovation and efficiency to minimize waste in our processes and increase our recycling efforts. In 2017, we set a target to reduce waste generation by 10% kg/production hour until 2022.

Although we didn't reach our target for waste reduction during that period, we've taken steps to increase circularity and reverse the trend by 2023. Our efforts are starting to show positive results, with a decrease of the proportion of hazardous waste from 33% to 29% in 2022. Additionally, the proportion of recyclable waste has increased from 64% to 66% in the same year.

We believe that it's crucial to take responsibility for our production processes and ensure that we minimize our impact on the environment. By focusing on innovation and sustainability, we're committed to working towards a greener future for our planet.
