Home remains place of refuge after returning from manufacturing process (10)
I believe the answer is:
industrial
'from manufacturing process' is the definition.
(relating to industry)
'home remains place of refuge after returning' is the wordplay.
'home' becomes 'in' ('he's home' can mean 'he's in').
'remains' becomes 'dust' (dust can mean a person's remains).
'place of refuge' becomes 'lair' (hideout or place of refuge).
'after returning' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'lair' written backwards gives 'rial'.
'in'+'dust'+'rial'='INDUSTRIAL'
(Other definitions for industrial that I've seen before include "fabricating things?" , "Like some business" , "Characterised by manufacturing processes" , "Involved in manufacture" , "Type of action" .)
