Authors : Bouguern Siham .

Abstract

In response to limited resources and increasing energy costs, many innovative strategies have been introduced in the manufacturing systems. These approaches include lean manufacturing, environmentally friendly practices, agility, and sustainable manufacturing. Sustainable Manufacturing (SM) requires simultaneous consideration of economic, environmental, and social impacts linked to the creation and distribution of products. Currently, manufacturers bear the responsibility of producing products sustainably. However, many companies struggle to adopt SM strategies due to the insufficient integration of various enablers of SM. In this paper, we contribute to a better understanding and holistic approach for SM. The scientific values of this paper are to (1) increase the knowledge on SM concepts (2) identify various barriers and enablers for SM (3) familiarize researchers and practitioners with the SM tools and practices (4) enhance Algerian industrial ecology through sustainability gain (5) provide quantitative insights of SM indicators in Algeria (6) identify of associated future research directions.
