Abstract The idea of circular economy is becoming imperative concept that deals with waste and waste management all over the world. The circular economy represents approach needed for increasing world prosperity while at the same time reducing demand for the raw materials and minimizing negative implications. Circular economy is strongly connected with environment protection and creates savings for the companies which can create and sustain competitiveness on the market.

The paper analyses legal regulation of waste management in European Union and the Republic of Croatia. Paper will give example of Croatian plastic producer and how it has approached to the waste management and introduced partial circular economy in his production of plastic bottles and closures.
