A large and growing number of manufacturers are realizing substantial financial and environmental benefits from sustainable business practices. Sustainable manufacturing is the creation of manufactured products through economically-sound processes that minimize negative environmental impacts while conserving energy and natural resources. Current economic crisis raises the constant demand for profitable solutions that allow organizations to gain competitive advantage. For this reason, more and more companies search for management methodologies that allow them to improve their products and/or service characteristics, perfect their processes, decrease costs, improve the capital’s profitability and costumers’ satisfaction. This have been attempted through Lean Management and Six Sigma integrated approaches in their managerial and production processes in which, Lean focus mainly on the waste elimination, using simple and visual techniques whenever possible and Six Sigma on the control and processes variability reduction, using statistical tools for this purpose. The present study is a detailed study of the lean sigma and how to improve the manufacturing process and decrease product defects in the production line.
