The accelerated growth of the global economy has given rise to a multitude environmental concerns that demand immediate attention. At this juncture, total carbon emissions are exhibiting gradual increase. China, United States, India, Russia, and Japan represent top five countries in terms emissions, collectively accounting for approximately 60% total. Of these, China’s highest world, representing over 30% As urbanization accelerates, from urban agglomerations constitute substantial share nation’s rendering clusters critical issue. In context agglomerations, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region, due factors such as industrial structure, accounts relatively high proportion 11% national future trajectory region will significantly impact high-quality development entire cluster. Consequently, research on is vital importance.

After a period of rapid growth, China’s pharmaceutical industry is facing multiple challenges, including insufficient innovation and severe pollution. Current research on the efficiency companies in China primarily focuses financial or aspects. Therefore, holistic approach to operational needed. To measure more accurately holistically, while accounting for environmental pollution, this study employs three-stage Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model with undesirable outputs evaluate across five dimensions: market performance, profitability, risk control, innovation, sustainability. This integrates financial, sustainability indicators provide industry-specific framework measurement. Furthermore, integrating Stochastic Frontier (SFA) allows revealing impact factors efficiency. The results show that both technical (TE) pure (PTE) are relatively low first third stages, significant regional disparities. excluding factors, some regions—typically economically developed areas—showed improved overall indicates local environment these regions not conducive development enterprises. SFA further demonstrate investments education high-level talent significantly enhance efficiency, whereas pollutant emissions per capita income reduce findings suggest governments should enterprises by investing education, attracting skilled talent, improving waste infrastructure. Additionally, less efficient firms encouraged optimize resource allocation achieve higher
