Sustainable Manufacturing Group

The journey to a net-zero future begins with sustainable manufacturing, creating innovative solutions to build a greener world.

Manufacturing started the industrial revolution, unlocked the power of fossil fuels, enabled the development of consumerism, sparked man-made climate change and underpins every day of modern life. There can be no sustainable society without sustainable manufacturing systems, processes and products.

Our group reimagines manufacturing to reduce energy consumption, decarbonise industrial processes, create greener products and minimise the accelerating consumption of society.

Afterall, there is no Planet B!
