N2 - This paper presents a total life-cycle approach towards developing comprehensive product metrics for sustainable manufacturing including the triple bottom line: environment, economy and society. The developed generic metrics are grouped under different metrics clusters, and are categorized across the four life-cycle stages (pre-manufacturing, manufacturing, use and post-use) of a product. This gives an opportunity to develop a leveling system for the metrics based on the presence of different metrics across multiple life-cycle stages. The development and deployment of relevant product metrics ontology is shown as a prerequisite for the ultimate evaluation and improvement in product design for sustainable manufacturing.
