Summary/Abstract: The assumptions of sustainable development clearly indicate that the search for new solutions to technical, technological and logistical resources, and rationalization of the economy, energy and waste should be a priority for all business sectors and services. The implemantation of reverse logistics into business processes could help to overcome the global economy crisis efects. The purpose of the article is twofold: a critical analysis of the subject literature in terms of reverse logistics and recycling, and to highlight the role of reverse logistics in creating added value for producers of plastics. The premise is the choice of reverse logistics for plastics on the one hand, considering their versatile applications, such as in the packaging , construction and automotive industries. On the other hand, an extremely important issue is that their production is characterized by high dynamics, has a significant impact on the environment, contributing significantly to the use of the valuable resource that is oil.
