Sustainable Consumption and Production in value chains
The document discusses the importance of integrating sustainable consumption and production (SCP) into business strategies, focusing on resource efficiency and waste minimization throughout the value chain. It highlights the benefits of sustainability, such as reduced carbon footprints, improved operational efficiencies, and enhanced brand loyalty, while also noting challenges like transactional supplier relationships and consumer price sensitivity. Examples from various companies illustrate successful SCP interventions and the measurable savings achieved in resource usage.

Many measures were then implemented by the companies in close consultation and cooperation with the local counterpart. On the following three pages, we would li some of the measures that we have implem ACIDLOOP project. Many more good and b be found in the Good and Best Practice Measures in the Metal Finishing Sector. KEY RESULTS OF THE DIRECT COMPANY SUPPORT Showing the impact of the ACIDLOOP approach was very important from the beginning of the project. During the first assessment of companies, the ACIDLOOP consultants therefore collected data on what amount of resources the company was using, and how much energy and water it consumed. This consumption data was correlated with the production output. At the end of the project period – after the RECP measures identified had been implemented by the companies – the consultants again measured the consumption of input materials per output produced (specific consumption). The ACIDLOOP team is very proud to have achieved significant savings in specific consumption of input resources across all regions. As can be seen in the figure below material, energy and water consumption decreased on an average by more than 20% in all regions. Before: Steel wires were used for hanging the metal parts to be plated in the electroplating bath. Problems associated with this approach included: ― Steel wire was consumed during plating. ― Loading of parts to be plated was time consuming. ― The orientation of the parts could not be controlled. Replacement of Wires with Jigs in Plating Baths Location: Faridabad | Process: Electroplating After: The ACIDLOOP team suggested the replacement of all steel wires with reusable jigs. Benefits from this approach included: ― The time required for loading was reduced which increased the productivity. ― The orientation of parts could now be controlled which improved the quality of the plating process.
