The eco-friendly factories will use land intensively, feature clean production, engage in waste recycling, and make use of low-carbon energy. 

The province will develop eco-friendly factories by using eco-friendly building technology, promoting green design and procurement, producing green products, adopting advanced and applicable clean production techniques and high-efficiency end treatment equipment, and establishing a resource recycling mechanism.

By introducing eco-friendly enterprises with strong economic benefits and applying the concept of green development in park planning, spatial layout, and industrial chain design, Shanxi will build industrial parks with an eco-friendly operation structure. 

As for the promotion of products with a sustainable design, the province will choose mature products with a large quantity and a wide range and that are closely related to consumers, and adopt high-performance, lightweight, and eco- friendly new materials to develop energy-efficient green products.
