Composites manufacturers are accustomed to having their products evaluated on properties like performance and pricing. But customers are now assessing another aspect of their businesses: the sustainability of their manufacturing operations. Sustainable Manufacturing can be defined as “the creation of manufactured products thorough economically-sound processes that minimize negative environmental impact while conserving energy and natural resources” (US Environmental Protection Agency). For transitioning to a more sustainable society, it is vital to conduct research not only on material but also on production methods that may reduce the climate and environmental impact, with a target of zero waste.
