The global development of the world has an adverse affect on the natural environment, such as global warming, is continuing to mount. Green manufacturing systems that focus on minimizing environmental impact of manufacturing processes and products are ever more important to sustain our future. Green manufacturing systems are slow to gain acceptance as manufacturers are focusing more on implemen...

Companies have been forced to find alternatives balance productivity and the environment in their operations products as they move greener products. The result of this action is balancing continuous or simultaneous exploration using pure green designs. purpose paper identify green-lean evaluation model Automotive Industry. In study, important criteria lean production system were identified from...

To better satisfy various stakeholders, firms are seeking integrated practices that can enhance their sustainability performance, also well known as the Triple Bottom Line (3BL). The fashion industry exhibits potential conflicts with the spirit of sustainability because of the waste created by high levels of demand uncertainty and the extant usage of resources in production. Literature suggests...

value stream mapping because of being able to understand process bottlenecks, as one of the most common tools for analyzing, identifying and eliminating various losses in operational and support processes are used. on the other hand, inventory management, precise control entry and exit of goods, accurate and timely information about the inventories status and planning, reduce product maintenanc...

Lean manufacturing is a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating wastes (non-value added activities) through continuous improvement by conveying the product at the pull of the customer in pursuit of production. In a more basic term, more value with less work. Since lean manufacturing eliminates many of the problems associated with poor production scheduling and line balancing, lean ma...

Lean system consists of best common sense practices for optimum resource utilization. Green manufacturing focuses on practices which reduce negative impacts on the environment. Global market conditions forced organizations to adopt Green-Lean (GL) concepts in the last few years. This paper focuses on the significant lean practices impacting the environment. The lean practices act as driver for ...

The paper presents the problems with integration of the companies within the supply chain. Usually the separate actions are undertaken by the companies to implement lean tools for production systems and external logistics processes. This situation leads to minor results or moving the costs between production and logistics processes instead of reduction. The purpose of the paper is to present th...

Green and lean paradigms have been adopted in a supply chain management context, but nearly always separately and with little understanding of their influence on supply chain performance and sustainable business development. This paper proposes a theoretical framework about the influence of green and lean practices on sustainable business development in a supply chain context. Green and lean up...
