The Industrial sector, being the most prominent driver of economic growth in India, has significantly contributed to climate change. Consequent negative impacts have been seen on resources, human health and wellbeing. This indicates a need to steer growth towards green industrialization through the adoption of green practices in industrial buildings. The research looked at various aspects of the green factory rating system developed by the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) as a tool for the greening of industrial buildings. The researcher identified fully operational green factories as case studies. A training programme was developed and implemented for randomly selected non-green factories to generate awareness among managers. Case profiling of green factories revealed newer technologies and practices adopted by management, such as building flush out breakout spaces, entryway systems, high efficiency filters, etc. The training programme helped the managers understand and appreciate how their practices and preferences in their factory buildings can contribute to good working environments, thereby leading to accomplishing the holistic goal of sustainable development. The authors call for sensitization of stakeholders towards green building guidelines so that the green movement can move forward toward the creation of a more sustainable future.
