SMX Launches Circularity-as-a-Service Platform for Global Plastics Value Chain

SMX (Security Matters) PLC announced the launch of its Circularity-as-a-Service platform for the plastics industry on June 10, 2026. This platform integrates various SMX technologies to enhance the economic value of recycled plastics by enabling accurate identification, grading, certification, and verification of recycled materials. The goal is to create trusted recycled plastic streams suitable for higher-value applications, traditionally dominated by virgin plastics. The platform supports all participants in the plastics value chain, from collectors to brand owners and traders. It combines molecular marking technology, reader infrastructure, Digital Material Passports, a Recycled Plastic Registry, Marketplace functionality, and Plastic Cycle Tokens to provide the necessary infrastructure for verified and certified recycled plastic products. SMX aims to address the challenge of increasing the supply of high-quality recycled materials by improving sorting, verification, and grading processes, thereby allowing recycled plastics to compete with virgin materials on price, quality, and availability in the "Age of Parity." The platform also supports regulatory compliance and offers financing opportunities through verified environmental performance. It transforms used and recycled plastic into a verified, graded, and certified material, fostering a data-driven circular economy.
