SMX Gives Plastic a Permanent ID on Blockchain

SMX has taken its plastics technology to the next level by expanding its Digital Material Passport platform. The company's molecular marking technology identifies plastic materials in the physical world, and now this identity can be carried into the digital blockchain.

The new infrastructure connects physical materials to digital records, allowing for verified material assets to enter markets. This is a significant step beyond mere authentication, where plastic was given a persistent identity but its history disappeared as it moved through supply chains.

SMX's technology embeds invisible molecular markers into materials, giving them a persistent physical identity. The Digital Material Passport platform connects this identity to a secure digital record containing information such as origin, composition, chain of custody, and recycling content.
