NEW
YORK, April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SMX
(Security Matters) PLC (NASDAQ:SMX; SMXWW), a pioneer in digitizing
physical objects for a circular economy, has announced today that
it has now successfully completed the marking of 21 tons of natural
rubber sourced in Latin America
from tree to tire. The program covered the marking at the tree in
Latin America through
manufacturing and production in the region. The SMX marker was
added to the cup lump harvesting by the farmers prior to transfer
to the manufacturing centre where the 42 tons of latex was
converted to 21 tons of natural rubber. The bails were then
transferred to tire manufacturing for commercial car, truck and
lorry tires. The tires were then sent for evaluation. The results
demonstrated 100% success rates on all marked tires to have a
proven verification technology for origin authentication of the
natural rubber and full traceability all along the entire supply
chain data and integrity from tree to tire.
The company stated: "We are delighted to have been able to
demonstrate SMX's value to deliver total supply chain
authentication and traceability from tree to tire. We look forward
to further developing our solutions across the global supply chain
for the automotive industry. This is the third solution for natural
rubber delivered by SMX spanning bicycle tires, engine mounts and
internal materials, and now car and truck tires. We continue to
strive to support the industry in the standardization for reporting
on natural rubber sourcing."
