Descripción Plastic is the main raw material used in the manufacture of toys, which in turn has contributed to research, development and innovation (R&D&I) in this sector. However, scientific advances have revealed the complications for human health and the environment derived from the use of certain plastic materials; which forces well-known companies in the toy industry, in order to remain updated, to take on challenges in terms of efficient and environmentally friendly processes, environmental regulations and production goals that use non-polluting materials (recycled, recyclable or biodegradable). The aim of this work was to develop a systematic review on how the principle of the four Rs (reduce, reuse, recycle and refuse) manages to be implemented by the main manufacturers, while highlighting the present and future challenges in this industry. To do this, 36 references related to the topic were consulted. The main conclusions are that the four Rs are applicable in the toy industry, through technological innovations oriented towards responsible consumption, environmental mitigation and community development, but important challenges persist in terms of sustainability.
Descripción El plástico es la principal materia prima ocupada en la confección de juguetes, lo cual a su vez ha contribuido con la investigación, desarrollo e innovación (I+D+i) en este sector. Sin embargo, avances científicos han puesto en evidencia las complicaciones para la salud humana y el ambiente, derivadas de la utilización de ciertos materiales plásticos; lo cual obliga a que empresas reconocidas en la industria juguetera, para poder mantenerse vigentes, asuman retos en materia de procesos eficientes y amigables con el ambiente, normativas ambientales y metas de producción que ocupen materiales no contaminantes (reciclados, reciclables o biodegradables). El presente trabajo tuvo por objetivo desarrollar una revisión sistemática sobre cómo el principio de las cuatro R (reducir, reusar, reciclar y rechazar), logra ser implementado por los principales fabricantes, a la vez que deja de manifiesto los desafíos presentes y futuros en esta industria. Para ello, se consultaron 36 referencias relacionadas con la temática. Como principales conclusiones, se tiene que las cuatro R son aplicables en la industria del juguete, mediante innovaciones tecnológicas orientadas hacia el consumo responsable, la mitigación ambiental y desarrollo comunitario, pero persisten retos importantes en materia de sostenibilidad.
