Conclusions Pharma companies have accepted the challenge of developing green and sustainable products/processes. Sustainability will change deeply the manufacturing approach of pharma industries. The search for product sustainability is a true opportunity for pharma industries to change their business model. Correct application of green chemistry generate simultaneous benefits for the environment, society and economy. 18
