[{"type":"text","content":"NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 17, 2025 / SMX (Security Matters) PLC (NASDAQ:SMX)(NASDAQ:SMXWW), a global pioneer in digitizing physical objects for a circular economy, today announced the successful completion of two proof-of-concept trials, conducted over two consecutive days, with its service provider RedWave, demonstrating advanced sorting solutions for NAFRA (North American Flame Retardant Alliance) and A*Star (Singapore's Agency for Science, Technology and Research).The trials validated the commercial-speed identification and sorting of both food-grade plastics (as part of SMX's collaboration with A*STAR for its project in Singapore) and flame-retardant black plastics with NAFRA.Industry Milestone Toward a Global Technological DevelopmentSMX believes that these trials represent a critical step toward establishing an industry standard for plastic traceability and recycling. By embedding SMX's molecular markers into materials and pairing them with RedWave's proprietary detection and sorting systems, the platform is being designed to deliver two outcomes:Increasing the use of recycled content in new plastic applications.Creating a full ecosystem through SMX's blockchain-backed digital passport, allowing for traceability from raw materials through production, recycling, and reuse.Through SMX's blockchain-backed digital passport, this breakthrough potentially creates a full digital platform ecosystem for plastics - enabling traceability from raw materials through production, recycling, and reuse. This allows for every stage of the material lifecycle to be certified and trusted, laying the groundwork for recognized global standards in sustainable plastics.The achievement by SMX, NAFRA, and RedWave is expected to be the first step in creating the foundation for an industry capability of marking and certifying tangible plastics.By doing so, SMX believes that plastic waste can be transformed into a valuable commodity, because once it is marked and certified, it has the potential to be able to re-enter supply chains with trusted quality and compliance - driving both commercial value and circular economic impact.Two-Day Showcase Demonstration: Food-Grade, Flame-Retardant and Carbon Black PlasticsDay 1 - A*STAR Collaboration (Singapore): Trials focused on food-grade plastics as part of SMX's joint project with Singapore's ...
