“…Companies may seek to communicate their environmental performance to outside stakeholders particularly their customers. To enable dissemination of such information to emission sensitive customers, several authors including Roberts (2008) and Houe and Grabot (2009) have suggested eco-labelling of products.…”

“…These techniques or practices can help control the use of resources during the production process or also in product design (Andriankaja, Vallet, Le Duigou, & Eynard, 2015;Houe & Grabot, 2009;Zhang, Zhan, Liu, Zhang, & Li, 2011;Chiang & Roy, 2012;Fiksel, 2009). Baumann, Boons and Bragd (2002) and Dangelico and Pontrandolfo (2010), seek to integrate environmental aspects into products to minimize the risks of emissions emitted during production, consumption and disposal.…”

Abstract:Purpose: The objective of this paper is to investigate how environmental improvements can be achieved through operational practices of Lean Manufacturing.Design/methodology/approach: A literature review was conducted to analyze the relationship between operational practices of Lean and reduction of environmental impact in organizational contexts. Verified theoretically, this relationship was observed in a company of the electronics industry, through an exploratory research which contemplated a mixed approach. The adopted research method consisted of a single case study, by providing greater depth and detail of the study. Utilized a research protocol, validated pilot test. The instruments for data collection were semi-structured interviews, direct observation and document analysis. The information was examined qualitatively considering the technique for content analysis. Findings:As a result of the study, it was found that there is evidence for the existence of relationship between the practices of Lean, for example, Kaizen, PDCA (plan, do, check, act), Ishikawa Diagram, Poka-Yoke, and Standardized Work, with the reduction of environmental impacts of an organization. This reduction was observed after application of these practices that resulted in the reduction of energy consumption and water consumption. These results were accounted for financially, contributing to a reduction of annual costs by about US$ 17,900.-550-Journal of Industrial Engineering and Management -https://doi.org/10.3926/jiem.2268 Originality/value: The study presents in detail, the application of operational practices of Lean Manufacturing, with an effective view to reducing the environmental impact and cost reduction.The literature review, a detailed description of the application process and financial results are important information that contributes to the scientific studies that address traditional operating practices and the search for better environmental performance.
