✦ Synopsis


CCC 0742-4477/97/050497-13 *Identifiers for inputs are L Ο­ labor, E Ο­ energy, OV Ο­ other variable, M Ο­ management, OF Ο­ other fixed, and P Ο­ plant. Inputs associated with identifiers preceding the slash (/) are treated as fixed, and those following the slash are treated as variable.

**These figures are reported as percentages. ***Output aggregation is defined as aggregation of fertilizer outputs (dry, fluid, and anhydrous). Other outputs (chemicals, services, and other) are maintained as separate outputs. Aggregation of inputs is defined as aggregation of management and labor; and other variable, other fixed, and energy. Plant and equipment is left separate and is the only aggregate input treated as fixed.

In this article, eco-efficiency -'sustainable development at the company level' or 'value added per environmental impact' -is operationalized at the production unit level. An eco-efficiency index is developed and tested with 31 Finnish and 37 Swedish pulp, paper and board mills in 1993-1996. In esse
