“…Material waste in the textile-apparel production cycle can reduce value and economic opportunities and harm the environment. Effective ETP plants, recycling, and reusing wastewater water conservation, harvesting of water, and hazardous and non-hazardous substance reduction are examples of waste management (Gupta et al, 2022;Khairul Akter et al, 2022). The 75 Bangladeshi factories that are part of the Partnership for Cleaner Textiles (PaCT) have improved water efficiency, decreased energy consumption, and increased chemical control by adopting best production practices (BGMEA, 2020).…”

“…Twenty-five Bangladeshi manufacturers have earned the US Green Building Council's (USGBC) highest certification, with six of the top ten LEED-certified factories in the world being in Bangladesh. Many RMG companies in Bangladesh are now using green practices such as green materials, green innovation, green energy, green building, waste management, green supply chain, and corporate social responsibility to reduce stress and make their businesses more sustainable (Chowdhury & Yasmin, 2018;BGMEA, 2020;Kaizer, 2020;Sarkar et al, 2020;Sabuj et al, 2021;Shamsuzzaman et al, 2021;Khairul Akter et al, 2022).…”

“…Green material is the first approach to promote sustainability in the apparel sector. Organic textile materials are eco-friendly resources (e.g., organic fibers and leather) characterized renewability of the raw materials and ecological footprints of the resources that can produce sustainable apparel products (Khan & Islam, 2015;Hasan et al, 2022;Khairul Akter et al, 2022). Most of Bangladesh's RMG factories exclusively use organic cotton textiles validated by Global Organic Textile Standard-certified (GOTS)(BGMEA, 2020).…”

In recent years, green manufacturing practices have gained significant attention in academia and industry. The ready-made garments (RMG) industry, the second-top industrial polluter in the world, is incorporating green manufacturing practices to reduce the negative impacts on the environment of the RMG industry and sustainable development for experiencing increased pressures from the stakeholders. The RMG industry in Bangladesh, being the world's secondlargest garment exporter, has become the leading sector in the country's economy. However, the RMG industry is generating several environmental challenges like global warming, CO2 emissions, climate change, etc. Thus, the RMG sector in Bangladesh is adopting green manufacturing practices to save the environment and attain sustainable development. The available literature needs a structured analysis of the issues despite the significance of the green development area. This study aims to represent the framework of green approaches in the RMG sector of Bangladesh and to construct the linkages between green manufacturing tactics and sustainable development of the Apparel industry in the country. This study adopts a systematic literature review to explore green manufacturing strategies such as organic materials, green building, green innovation, green supply chain, social issues, etc., which businesses are integrating for sustainability.
