Multicountry Observational Study Mission on Promoting Green Manufacturing

Increasing natural resource depletion and CO2 emissions necessitate the adoption of environment-friendly manufacturing practices. The need for greater economic efficiency, with the least environmental impact, led to the new manufacturing paradigm of GM. While GM practices were initially adopted by large-scale enterprises, many SMEs have now started to implement them given their benefits and opportunities while adhering to strict environmental regulations enforced by governments.

For APO members, GM applications by employing various innovative strategies and techniques to become more eco-efficient and raise productivity will help improve their environmental performance and achieve economic gains. GM adoption is thus a key step in achieving the ultimate goal of industrial sustainability in the region. This observational study mission will showcase the GM application of companies and the public policies that promote its adoption to enhance overall competitiveness and sustainability of industries.
