Re-use of waste
When the materials are collected by the municipal waste companies and no matter whether materials are recycled or discarded – they immediately become waste.Waste prevention (including
the re-use of materials) is a set of actions whose aims are to prevent materials entering into the waste management system and to encourage the re-use of the materials for the same purpose or to create products which create less waste. The purpose of this paper is to examine the current policy environment in Croatia, compare it with European standards and obligations and create policy recommendations for the Croatian national Waste Prevention Programme.
