The concept of Industry 5.0 provides a human-centered, sustainable, and resilient manufacturing system with a high emphasis on green technologies. This paper will examine the current use and perception of the green and digital technologies in the internal and external transport systems of Croatian manufacturing companies, relying on the continuous work of the authors in the field of local manufacturing industry development and digitalization. On a sample of 112 companies, statistical analysis of the results has shown that the greatest challenge in the digital technologies implementation is the unavailability of the technology on the market and employee resistance to change. The companies perceive benefits of renewable resource usage in internal transport in the rise in environmental awareness and increased flexibility, while the productivity increase and human safety improvement are the crucial reasons for the digitalization of internal transport in Croatian manufacturing companies. In external transport, the use of renewable energy sources is very rare, due to high price and low endurance of the vehicles, but the main reasons for its future possible implementation are environmental awareness, profitability, and sustainability. The majority of the companies in Croatia are still not familiar with Industry 4.0 or 5.0 concept but have shown a high interest for digital and green technology implementation to enable sustainable future development.

“…By integrating optimization techniques for workshop layout and scheduling, it is possible to achieve additional reductions in total carbon emissions within the manufacturing process [21]. Ren et al examine the effects of enhancing systematic layout planning (SLP) on reducing warehouse carbon emissions from the standpoint of a low-carbon economy, employing a soft path model as their analytical framework [22]. Li and Guo quantify the total carbon emissions of the remanufacturing process, providing new directions for low-carbon circulation in workshop layout problems [23].…”

A crucial measure to accelerate the low-carbon transformation of enterprises in the industrial sector involves stringent control over carbon emissions attributed to logistics and transportation activities. In this study, a multi-objective workshop layout optimization model is developed, aiming to minimize logistics cost per unit area and carbon emissions, and maximize the non-logistics relationship. The objective is to mitigate avoidable transportation-related carbon emissions during enterprise operations, while facilitating the co-development of the enterprise’s economy and environment. The model is solved utilizing an enhanced NSGA-II algorithm, with the initial solution set optimized through a combination of system layout design method, dynamic adaptive crossover, and variation strategies. Additionally, the distribution function is introduced to enhance the elite retention strategy and boost the algorithm’s search rate. By using an actual case study, the usefulness of the enhanced algorithm is demonstrated, and the plant’s initial low-carbon layout is realized in order to advance the enterprises’ sustainable growth.

“…Meanwhile, the experimental data were analyzed for sensitivity to provide a reference for logistics management decision-making [20]. Ren, Q. et al analyzed the system layout influencing factors inside the warehouse through the establishment of the soft-path model, taking the low-carbon economy as the entry point, and classified the influencing factors affecting the layout of warehouses into logistic and non-logistic factors, and through the quantitative way to analyze the intrinsic connection between the two factors, and proposed a dual-objective warehouse layout optimization model [21].…”

Warehousing space layout is crucial for e-commerce logistics. A refined and scientific approach to warehouse design enhances space utilization and operational efficiency. This minimizes unused space and idle time, lowers inventory costs, and strengthens the competitive edge of e-commerce logistics. In this study, we conceptualize the logistics space layout issue as a crate problem, harnessing the rapid optimization capabilities of genetic algorithms (GA) and simulated annealing (SA). We propose a hybrid algorithm where SA forms the core, using GA to generate initial solutions and new iterations. Design parameters for the combined operation process are systematically developed. This algorithm is evaluated using both datasets and real arithmetic cases, demonstrating superior performance in large-scale combinatorial optimization problems. It achieves a search accuracy of 0.5% to 3% higher than GA alone, converging more reliably to the global optimum, thus reducing search time and operational scope. This research offers vital theoretical insights for optimizing space layouts in e-commerce logistics management.
