Future-Ready Factories: Powering Sustainability Through Digital Innovation

Background

With industries striving for reduced carbon footprints, Malaysian SMEs need solutions that enhance sustainability without compromising efficiency. Unlinke conventional factory-level monitoring, MASSCI’s Digitalisation Programme enables SMEs to track carbon emissions at the production line level. This advanced Manufacturing Execution System (MES) provides detailed insights into carbon output per unit of product, allowing manufacturers to identify specific inefficiencies, optimise resources, and comply with emerging environmental standards. Developed in collaboration with Alliance Bank, the programme includes financing options at preferred rates, making precise, sustainable production both accessible and cost-effective. This forum, “Future-Ready Factories: Powering Sustainability Through Digital Innovation”, is designed to provide SMEs with the knowledge, tools, and financial support needed to lead in sustainable, efficient manufacturing.
