This report summarizes the presentations, discussions, and recommendations of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Workshop “Sustainable Manufacturing: Metrics, Standards, and Infrastructure” held at NIST, Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA, October 13 through October 15, 2009.

The Workshop was well attended and consisted of thirty presentations organized under five sessions: 1) Government Initiatives; 2) Industry Perspectives; 3) University Research; 4) Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) research; and 5) Solution Provider's Views. Two breakout sessions and an industry panel provided a set of recommendations for addressing critical issues in sustainable manufacturing.
