Abstract As the body of sustainable manufacturing knowledge grows, there is a call for more examples of good practice to help manufacturers achieve their sustainability goals. Previous work has collated significant examples of what companies have achieved so far, in reducing the footprint of their factory operations, from literature and online sources. The contribution of this work is the creation of a conceptual model to inform the identification of the classification domain. A case based approach and an example is used to illustrate a potential classification scheme, for use in a library to support further understanding of how practices contribute to environmental performance improvement.
