Problematics
The situation in the market is dramatic. These are the worst times since 1993. Not all scrap collectors are sure they will survive coming winter. Half-alive are Russian scrap consumers, half-alive is the largest international buyer of scrap metal, Turkey. There is going to be no improvement of the situation in the near future. This is the background for the new act “On production and consumption wastes” which will introduce recycling fees for all goods in Russia since May 1, 2014. And since January 1, 2015 the membership in self-regulatory organization is going to be compulsory.
