Abstract
Green Productivity refers to improving productivity, efficiency, and quality while minimizing environmental impacts such as pollution, waste generation, and excessive resource consumption. It focuses on utilizing resources such as energy, water, and raw materials more effectively to achieve environmental efficiency. At the same time, manufacturing competitiveness emphasizes the production of high-quality, innovative, and cost-effective products that strengthen market position. This study explores the integration of environmental efficiency with manufacturing competitiveness through Green Productivity practices. By adopting strategies such as resource optimization, waste reduction, recycling, cleaner production, and energy-efficient technologies, organizations can achieve sustainable industrial growth while enhancing profitability and operational performance. The study highlights that Green Productivity contributes to improved environmental outcomes, reduced production costs, enhanced product quality, and stronger competitive advantage, thereby serving as a strategic framework for sustainable manufacturing development.
