Industrial Waste: Unlocking Value Through SMX's Identity Technology

Each year, over 2 billion tons of industrial waste, laden with materials like plastics and composites, escape recycling streams due to identification issues. SMX's breakthrough in molecular verification changes this. Partnering with REDWAVE, CETI, and CARTIF, SMX improves sorting speed and accuracy of waste materials. REDWAVE's systems, once limited by optical sensor shortcomings, now achieve up to 100% accuracy. This enhances material recovery and classification.

In France, CETI employs SMX's identity markers to recover layered polymers from packaging, increasing output and production quality. Meanwhile, CARTIF ensures regulatory compliance in the EU through verified recovery counts, proving adherence to strict quotas and reducing compliance costs significantly.

Globally, this shift could unlock $200-250 billion in recoverable materials. By embedding identity in materials, SMX enables precise tracking and reclaiming of resources, transforming waste streams into valuable inventory.
