Business overview

SMX (Security Matters) develops a blockchain-based platform that provides comprehensive tracking and tracing solutions for physical objects. The company utilizes distinct chemical barcodes to create a digital identity for each object, enabling full lifecycle tracking. These digital identities enhance supply chain management, promote sustainability, and reduce counterfeiting. By tracing and verifying raw materials from their origin through manufacturing, distribution, retail, and end-of-life stages, SMX ensures complete supply chain transparency, fostering measurable sustainable circularity. The company primarily serves industries focused on industrial technologies, material innovations, and applications, with a strong emphasis on the circular economy and climate tech.

Strategic signal

In September 2025, SMX announced a significant partnership with Singapore's A*STAR to launch the world's first Plastic Passport Program, aiming to redefine the ASEAN plastics market. This collaboration highlights SMX's embedded technology as a key driver for building consumer trust through verifiable proof at the checkout and establishes a global benchmark for plastics recycling. The initiative signals a major step towards a circular economy by transforming plastic waste into a new asset class and providing a common language for a global plastics passport, demonstrating the company's strategic validation in addressing critical sustainability challenges.
