Abstract

Sustainable manufacturing has obtained attention and been redefined due to the fast modifications inside the improvement of global problem at the environmental degradation and greening attempt as well as striving for competitiveness. Sustainable manufacturing used environmentally pleasant treatment and useful resource recovery are presently very vital problems for governments and industries globally. The paper additionally discusses the key troubles of sustainable production, what are the level of awareness of sustainability and initiatives taken with the aid of manufacturers to make certain sustainable manufacturing. A conceptual framework was created consistent with the existing literature and published reviews of sustainable production practices by using established overseas corporations, researchers and practitioners. The finding of the studies is divided into two part: focus on sustainable manufacturing and common sustainable practices of ready-made clothes industry in which the commonplace practices is shown on waste management practices, sustainable production technique and sustainable materials procurement practices the various geared up-garments producers. The findings indicate that numerous companies have taken initiative to run their manufacturing system on sustainable manners and take numerous global certificates after satisfying sustainable practice standards.
