  • Collaboration, Innovation, Transformation Ideas and Inspiration to Accelerate Sustainable Growth - a Value Chain Approach
    Collaboration, innovation, transformation Ideas and inspiration to accelerate sustainable growth - A value chain approach WBCSD_SVC_Guide_PRINT_A4_40_pages_v16_2011_12_08.indd 1 08/12/2011 15:20 About this document Over the next few decades, businesses will face many challenges related to the environmental sustainability of their value chains (i.e. the full life cycle of a product or service) – whether it’s meeting new environmental regulations, securing enough water, energy or other resources for their daily operations, or managing the needs and expectations of their stakeholders. Meeting today’s challenges, while at the same time planning for future needs, is difficult. That’s why the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) has developed this guide. The guide is designed as a practical “how-to” tool, providing both ideas and inspiration to help businesses improve the environmental sustainability of their value chains. Using a practical step-by-step approach, it outlines the concrete actions businesses can take today to become more environmentally sustainable, along with examples from WBCSD member companies that have already successfully adopted a Sustainable Value Chain approach. The guide was developed by the WBCSD’s Sustainable Value Chain Workstream, with leadership from Unilever and The Coca-Cola Company. It includes case studies from AkzoNobel, The Coca-Cola Company, Henkel, Philips, Procter & Gamble, SABIC, Solvay, Sompo Japan Insurance, TNT, Umicore and Unilever.
