"Green supply chain" sounds a bit strange, but in fact it is not a completely new concept. It was originally proposed by the Manufacturing Research Association of Michigan State University in 1996. The purpose is to consider the development of the manufacturing supply chain from the perspective of resource optimization. That is to say, from the beginning of the product's raw material procurement period, tracking and control are carried out, so that the product will follow the environmental protection regulations in the design and development stage, thereby reducing the harm to the environment caused by the product during the use period and the payback period. Nowadays, this concept has gradually evolved from the initial conceptual level to practical and practical results around us and practical products that can enter the procurement process... When supply and procurement are connected, who says that "green supply chain" will not become an industry The next stop for development?
At the 15th China International Flour & Accessories (Autumn and Winter) Exhibition, a miniature wind power installation stood in front of the Hyosung Group's booth, which showed the audience the current development focus and philosophy of Hyosung-realizing the "green city dream". That is, to create an urban environment in which humans and nature coexist harmoniously. In addition, many well-known domestic and foreign fiber, yarn, and fabric manufacturers have launched new environmentally friendly products and technologies. It can be clearly seen that the realization of a "green supply chain" is the general trend.
Green Supply Chain
The concept of green supply chain was first proposed by the Manufacturing Research Association of Michigan State University in 1996 in a study of "Environmentally Responsible Manufacturing (ERM)", also known as Environmentally Conscious Supply Chain (ECSC) or Environmentally Supply Chain (ESC) is a modern management model that comprehensively considers environmental impact and resource efficiency in the entire supply chain. It is based on green manufacturing theory and supply chain management technology, involving suppliers, production plants, The purpose of sellers and users is to minimize the impact on the environment (negative effects) and maximize resource efficiency during the entire process of product acquisition, processing, packaging, storage, transportation, use, and disposal.
