EPSRC Centre for Industrial Sustainability
Our Vision
To create a strong and resilient manufacturing sector that creates high-quality jobs, a balanced economy, and addresses social and environmental needs while being competitive in a global, low-carbon, resource-efficient economy.
We have identified three specific and connected waves of change; Eco-efficiency, Eco-factories and a Sustainable Industrial Systems. Our goal is to work with industrial partners to organise and run the research that is needed to allow industry to smoothly ride these waves. In doing this we will assist industrial partners to bring sustainable methods into the day to day operation of their businesses - gaining competitive advantage, increasing their resilience, controlling costs and building their brands.
