The NCPC-SA aims to enhance the competitiveness and productive capacity of the national industry, focusing on SME's through Cleaner Production (CP) techniques. CP is an integrated preventive strategy applied to processes, products and services to eliminate or minimise the production of waste and pollution and to optimise the utilisation of resources. CP activities generally improve an organisation's bottom line and invariably improve productivity and competitiveness.
The NCPC-SA exists as a national body to strengthen market access by South African industry and business sectors through the fostering of networks to transfer Cleaner Production technologies & services that can contribute to the sustainability of value chains by delivering measurable economic, environment and social impacts that support the national priorities of growth, equity and employment.
