Abstract
The scarcity of resources and ecological imbalance has attracted the government and manufacturing organizations to go for sustainable development of the manufacturing industries. Sustainable manufacturing uses ecologically sound, socially sustainable products, processes, system, and supply chain. Sustainable manufacturing improves the firm's social, market, environmental, ecological, economic, and financial performance. However, various studies have taken place on sustainable manufacturing barriers, enablers, and drivers; still, many organizations do not opt for a sustainable manufacturing system either due to the multi-objectives of the business or various internal or external barriers. The main objective of this paper is the identification of various barriers and their sub-causes so that a more strategic approach can be planned by the policymakers to overcome the sustainable manufacturing barriers. The study contributes to the detailed understanding of sustainable manufacturing barriers and their causes. The paper also (i) highlights the research directions associated with (a) sustainable manufacturing barriers, (b) sustainable manufacturing system, and (ii) contributes to a better understanding of sustainable manufacturing.
