According to data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), Indonesia generated 26.2 million tons of waste in 2023.

However, this waste data only comes from 233 regencies/cities, while Indonesia has a total of 514 regencies/cities.

A similar situation occurred in previous years. Since 2019, the waste data recorded in the KLHK's National Waste Management Information System (SIPSN) has not been comprehensive.

The scope of waste data each year is also not uniform, coming from different numbers of regencies/cities.

Therefore, the annual data cannot be compared, and the actual volume of waste could be much higher than recorded.

In 2023, 66.22% of the total recorded waste was managed, while 33.78% was unmanaged.

The waste consisted mainly of food waste (41.75%), plastic (18.47%), wood/twigs (11.56%), and paper/cardboard (10.59%).

Meanwhile, waste consisting of metal, fabric, glass, rubber, leather, and others had a smaller proportion, ranging from 2-6%.

The recorded waste originated mostly from households (44.31%), commercial centers (18.02%), and markets (13.62%).

These three areas contributed 75.95% to the total volume of waste recorded in 2023. The remaining 24.05% came from offices, public facilities, industries, and other areas.
