description The aim of this paper is to determine the impact of green manufacturing on environmental sustainability among small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysian manufacturing sector.In specific, this study examines the level of green manufacturing implementation as well as the impact of this green practice on environmental sustainability among SMEs in manufacturing sector. Green manufacturing are measured through two components, namely eco-efficiency and cleaner production.This study was carried out based on a quantitative approach.A set of questionnaire was distributed to each of the targeted respondent which is the top level management.IBM Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 22 software (SPSS 22) was used to analyze the data from the study. In general, findings in this study have proven that the adoption of green manufacturing lead to improve environmental sustainability. However, in-depth investigation found that cleaner production is the single practice of green manufacturing that would improve environmental sustainability.Beside contribute to enhance body of knowledge in the field of sustainability and sustainable manufacturing, this study is valuable in promoting the importance of green manufacturing practice to preserve the environment sustainability among SMEs in manufacturing sector.
