Abstract
The cement industry has remarked as an intensive consumer of natural raw materials, fossil fuels, energy, and a major source of multiple pollutants. Therefore, it is a need to evaluate sustainable manufacturing in this industry. This paper aims to propose a fuzzy multi criteria approach for evaluating sustainable manufacturing in cement industry which integrated the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) and the Fuzzy Analytic Network Process (FANP) methodology. The network relationship model is constructed using ISM methodology. Importance weights of indicators are assigned by pairwise comparisons and calculated using fuzzy ANP methodology. A case study is also presented to demonstrate implementation of the evaluation model. The results show the existing performance level on company's strengths and weaknesses, and where improvements need to be made. It is hoped the proposed evaluation model can aid the cement industry to achieve the higher performance in sustainable manufacturing.
