We know that wastes are being generated by all manufacturing activities necessarily. It is not possible to covert100% material and energy inputs into final outputs. Some inputs ends up becoming waste. When the waste generated exceedsthe maximum assimilative capacity of the environment it becomes pollution. The paper focuses on LEAN production system,which aims at elimination of wastage.“Lean manufacturing” is a leading manufacturing philosophy being applied in many industrial sectors viz. small and largescale where improving product quality, reducing production costs, and being “first to market” and quick to respond tocustomer needs are critical to competitiveness and success. Lean manufacturing focus on creating a continual improvementculture that engages employees in reducing the intensity of time, materials, and capital necessary for meeting a customer’sneeds. As lean manufacturing focus on elimination of non-value added activities and wastage from the industries it therebyalso improves the performance of the environment.
