Abstract

The landscape of industry has been changing over time. Industry has transformed, and many tangents have emerged, from the sporadic home-based cottage industries to geographically scattered large manufacturing industries to co-located industrial parks to environment-friendly eco-industrial parks. Curiosity about the catalysts that bring about the transformation of industrial landscapes is the motivation of this article. Through the narrative on industrial parks and the gradual shift toward eco-industrial parks, this article aims to shed light on the context and conditions that act as catalysts for industrial transformations so as to serve as a reference for predicting future changes in industrial landscapes.
