Abstract
<jats:p>The growing trend of promoting an environmentally responsible lifestyle and business's careful attitude to the planet's resources is driven by the potential that the closed-loop economy and government programs of many developed countries are striving for. Recycling has gone through a difficult path in Russia, and currently specific targets have been set at the legislative level for the level of involvement of raw materials in recycling. Today, recycling is one of the important areas for effective environmental management for both enterprises and national economies as a whole, although the level of implementation of recycling systems in different countries differs in individual technological, cultural and economic development, as well as due to different levels of legislative support and government regulatory mechanisms.</jats:p>
