Abstract

Logistics 4.0 concepts have been made in recent years have close collaboration with Industry 4.0. Customization of products on large scale and developments in sustainability result in higher complications and requirements on logistics systems. To manage this complexity, a mechanism for handling the manufacturing supply chain to become automatic and sustainable is required. Sustainability and digitalization are transverse themes intersecting all parts of the manufacturing supply chain. While Industry 4.0 put forward modification in manufacturing in an astonishing way, Logistic 4.0 encourage the metamorphosis in an organization starting from procurement, manufacturing, distribution, warehousing, selling, and delivery of products to the customers to become supply chain more sustainable because where all the system depends on logistics. This chapter attempts to connect the link between the concept of sustainable manufacturing and Logistic 4.0 and make certain that the use of advanced technologies of Logistics 4.0 along with the operation principles can create value in all dimensions of sustainability. Also, the existent research work related to sustainable manufacturing and Logistics 4.0 are summarized along with conceptual framework developed by integrating the technologies and principles of Industry 4.0 with sustainable outcomes with a triple bottom line viewpoint. The human interface in Logistics 4.0 for accomplishing sustainable supply chain with the use of technologies is well defined. Also, adoption of Logistics 4.0 propelled by smart technologies will provide new services-products to the customers and will encourage the closed-loop life cycles in supply chain.
