Abstract: Industries can contribute for sustainable development by using cleaner and more efficient technologies. In view of that, to satisfactorily evaluate their processes performance, sustainability indicators turn out to be a crucial point. The present work has as its main objective providing a balanced scoreboard of performance aspects and indicators, whose priority lies in sustainability, and which are due to evaluate manufacturing processes. Although models for sustainability performance assessment have been presented over the last years, they still do not present a core group of indicators for manufacturing processes, which are accurate and easy to be measured.
