About the European Observatory for Eco-Manufacturing

The European Observatory for Eco-Manufacturing has been developed in the frame of the CleanProd project, a Coordination Action co-financed by the European Commission – Directorate General for Research – within the 6th Framework Programme. Public documents produced can be downloaded from the Founders page.

The European Observatory for Eco-Manufacturing provides free services to boost innovation in the manufacturing industry towards more environmentally friendly processes. It is built upon a community of experts active in the research and development of eco-manufacturing technologies, who believe that Europe must keep the world leadership in this field as a key driver of economic growth and employment.

• This Observatory hosts a knowledge area, fed by recognized experts of the clean production technologies. You will find roadmaps, Best Available Technologies, regulatory information, scientific papers, technology articles, etc… which make the state-of-the-art in your sector, and put them in a long term perspective.
• The Cleaner Production Europe web site will drive you to research results that are ready for uptake by the industrial players.
• A partnering area has been created which links the visitor with the Greenovate! Europe pool of eco-innovation management experts. Their members provide a whole range of services that ease partnership building, internationalization and financial services, offering a European perspective to respond to the requests.

As a high level web portal, this Observatory relays major international events dealing with eco-technologies for cleaner process. It also proposes links to relevant web sites disseminating valuable information about eco-manufacturing at European scale.
