Globally, manufacturers are facing rising expectations from regulators, customers and investors to reduce emissions, address supply chain impacts and demonstrate credible sustainability performance. To help address this, leading sustainability consultancy Tunley Environmental has released a new free Guide to Sustainable Manufacturing.

Sustainable manufacturing has become a strategic priority across high-impact sectors, including engineering, automotive, medical devices and consumer goods. The latest guide from Tunley Environmental is designed to equip businesses with the tools needed to redesign processes, reduce emissions and improve operational efficiency in a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

It covers:

• How to identify environmental hotspots within manufacturing processes.
• Practical steps for improving resource efficiency and lowering emissions.
• The role of Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) in driving measurable improvement.
• Ways to strengthen supply chain sustainability and engage suppliers.
• Guidance on aligning manufacturing practices with global frameworks such as ISO standards, PPN 006 and modern ESG expectations.

Designed for leaders in sustainability, operations, ESG and product development roles, the guide provides a clear and actionable overview of how organisations can embed sustainability principles across the full manufacturing lifecycle.

Dr William Beer, CEO of Tunley Environmental, said, “Manufacturers are under more pressure than ever to deliver high-performance products with a lower environmental footprint. Our new guide is designed to cut through the complexity and give organisations clear, science-based steps they can take today to reduce impact and strengthen their sustainability strategy.”

As industries move towards Net Zero and supply chains face increasing scrutiny, the guide supports organisations in preparing for new regulations, meeting existing requirements and customer expectations, as well as embedding sustainability into long-term business strategy.
