Abstract

Through our study we have attempted to address the focal issue of sustainability for chemical supply chains. The meaning of the word sustainability itself is quite subjective and there is both uncertainty and ambiguity related to how this crucial parameter will impact future business decisions. Currently, there is a dearth of research in the specific intersection area of sustainability and chemical supply chains. We have thus tried to take the initial steps by laying down a thinking guide for strategy formulation with a forward looking time horizon of 12-15 years.
