By satisfying the human need of clothing, among other textile uses, the textile industry influences traditions and lifestyles, having a crucial role in socio-cultural, political and economic dimensions. However, although it has a significant role in the globalised market, the textile industry is also responsible for extensive social and environmental impacts that comprises slavery, unheal…
Manufacturing industries are among the biggest contributors for men's environmental impacts. With the increase in economic activities, environmental issues are receiving increasing attention and environmental initiatives are evolving from 'end of pipe' approaches to more preventive ones, such as the Cleaner Production (CP). More recently, the adoption of a more holistic approach by govern…
Sustainable manufacturing has become an important area of research, where the use of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has relevant potential application. Recently, the single global methodology based on LCA developed for the Life Cycle Inventory(LCI) analysis of manufacturing processes was the CO2PE! Inititiative UPLCI. However, this methodology is limited just to the LCI of manufacturing proc…

Circular Economy (CE) is considered one of the main ways, in the field of business management, to implement sustainable development, although there are social and environmental aspects that need to be better considered. Traditionally, CE applications focus on the integration of few environmental elements (physical resources and waste) into economic activities, with low consideration of so…
The environmental management of modern industries needs an integrated strategy of the life cycle products activities (from raw material extraction to the product end of life) and of preventive tools for the environmental and social negatives impacts. The main tool for the life cycle impacts analysis is the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), but in order to make it scientifically correct, the re…
