Abstract: The aim of the paper is to evaluate the degree of satisfaction of the requirements related to sustainable development for an enterprise. Starting from the requirements of a sustainable development and the impact of pulp and paper industry on the environment we have identified and formulated a series of criteria in order to do this assessment. We have proposed in this paper criteria referring to four different aspects related to sustainable development: pollution, manufacturing technology, materials, energy consumption. In the paper there is proposed an aggregation indicator, which we named Performance of the Technological Management Indicator (PTMI), in order to reflect an overall judgement about the degree of satisfaction of the chose objectives, built on enterprises responds to the considered criteria, and on the basis of multicriteria techniques. The proposed indicator can be an extremely useful tool for those involved in technological and environmental management, in all enterprises from this industrial sector and not only for these, because indicator’s evaluation at different moments of time can reflect if the enterprise’s activity satisfies the requirements of a sustainable development. The indicator can help the decision makers, or policy makers, to create a hierarchy for factories in the field, indicating those enterprises which can be considered an example of good practice for that industrial sector [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
