According to the NACFAM (National Council for Advanced Manufacturing
–USA) Sustainable Manufacturing is defined “as the creation of
manufactured products that use processes that are non-polluting,
conserve energy and natural resources, and are economically sound
and safe for employees, communities, and consumers.” For others
words, sustainable manufacturing is developing technologies to
transform materials with reduced emission of greenhouse gases,
reduced use of non renewed or toxic materials and reduced the
generation of waste. Sustainable or green manufacturing includes the
manufacturing of “sustainable” products (for example, manufacture of
renewable energy, energy efficient, etc) and the sustainable
manufacturing of all products.
