This study explores the application of Cleaner Production (CP) tools combined with eco-efficiency in the plastics industry, focusing on waste reduction in stretch film production. A quantitative case study identified inefficiencies in raw material handling and logistics, leading to high costs and environmental impacts. The proposed solution includes installing fixed pipelines and preventive maintenance to reduce virgin material consumption and enhance operational efficiency. The results show that adopting these practices can yield significant cost savings and promote sustainability.
