ClearSustentabilidade no processo produtivo da indústria cosmética: uma revisão da literatura
This systematic literature review examined sustainability practices in the cosmetics industry, including the growing concern over microplastic ingredients in cosmetic products. The review identified trends toward greener formulations, sustainable packaging, and consumer-driven pressure for environmental responsibility. The cosmetics sector is increasingly recognizing its environmental impact and exploring alternatives to synthetic microplastics.
An Examination of Microplastics: Environmental Impact, Sustainability, and Recyclability Innovation
This paper examined the environmental impact of microplastics, sustainability implications of current plastic use, and recycling options to address the plastic pollution crisis. It called for a transition toward circular economy approaches that reduce primary plastic production and increase recycled content.
A Systematic Literature Review on Environmental Sustainability Issues of Flexible Packaging: Potential Pathways for Academic Research and Managerial Practice
This systematic review identified key environmental sustainability challenges in flexible packaging, including plastic waste accumulation, microplastic generation, and recycling barriers, while mapping research gaps and calling for integrated lifecycle approaches to reduce its ecological burden.

A Study on Waste Disposal Management in Textile Industry: A Case Study of Gul Ahmed
Researchers examined waste disposal management practices in the textile industry using Gul Ahmed as a case study, investigating how waste disposal methods, green supply chain practices, and waste reduction strategies relate to company productivity through a mixed-methods correlational design combining questionnaire surveys and in-depth interviews. The study aimed to quantify the relationships between environmental management variables and operational performance in textile manufacturing.
Green Accounting Practices in Bali’s Hospitality Industry: A Strategic Approach to Sustainable Hotel Management
Researchers examined green accounting practices in ten major hotels in Bali's hospitality industry, focusing on environmental protection, waste management, eco-friendly purchasing, and energy conservation using a qualitative approach with semi-structured interviews. The study found that implementing green accounting as a strategic approach enables hotels to balance economic growth with environmental sustainability while responding to increasing regulatory and market pressures.
Green business process management for business sustainability: A case study of manufacturing small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from Germany
Researchers assessed sustainability practices at ten small manufacturing companies in Germany and found that while many had green attitudes, most lacked the structured processes, governance, and monitoring needed to meaningfully reduce their environmental impact — suggesting a process-focused management model could accelerate progress.
Potential Routes to the Sustainability of the Food Packaging Industry
