✦ Synopsis

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the specific business segments of firms in the environmental management industry and the financial performance of those organizations. Based on a sample of firms in 1992 and 1994, the results show that cleaning 'end of pipe' environmental technologies are more profitable than cleaner 'process based' environmental technologies.

In addition, firms in the waste management segment of the environmental management industry are the most profitable, while recycling firms are the least profitable.
