NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 29, 2025 / As well-meaning as lengthy debates may be, the bottom line is simple: the system designed to create sustainable plastics circularity is broken. And the world doesn't need-or want-to struggle through another decade of testing to figure out what might work. It needs results. Pilots and frameworks have had their moment. They've built awareness and stirred ambition. That's a plus. But ambition without implementation doesn't solve the problem. The world doesn't need more rhetoric-it needs measurable outcomes.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 28, 2025 / The global plastics system is broken-and everyone in the supply chain knows it. Let's be clear up front- this article isn't about blame. And it shouldn't be. Regulators have set ambitious targets, corporations are investing billions, and NGOs continue to raise awareness. Their intent is genuine and deserves recognition. In fact, thanks to these efforts, demand for recycled plastics has never been higher.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 27, 2025 / The ambition on display at the UN plastics negotiations deserves recognition. More than 150 nations, each with its own economic and cultural pressures, came together with one intent: to solve one of the world's most urgent challenges. That in itself is a triumph. The passion, the urgency, and the willingness to engage across divides show just how seriously the global community takes plastics' circularity. It was an all-in effort, and it must be praised.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 26, 2025 / The global push for plastics circularity has reached its inflection point. And on the right side of that shift are Singapore and its ASEAN peers, who are proving that accountability, transparency, and material efficiency are more than ideals; they are levers of economic return. At the center of this transformation is SMX (NASDAQ:SMX), whose molecular-to-digital toolbox is quickly becoming the de facto standard for measurable sustainability.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 25, 2025 / SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) just unveiled a pivotal new milestone in Singapore, announcing a strategic collaboration with Bio-Packaging Pte Ltd-a homegrown leader in PCR, biodegradable, and compostable packaging.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 15, 2025 / The recent conclusion of the UN plastics treaty talks revealed both the promise and the challenge of global environmental diplomacy. For nearly two weeks, environmental leaders, scientific experts, advocacy groups, and industry representatives from over 100 countries came together with a shared vision: protect oceans, rivers, and landscapes while making the most of the resources we have.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / This month's United Nations plastics treaty talks have captured global attention. The Guardian, Channel NewsAsia, and Reuters have all highlighted the scale and significance of the negotiations and the complexity of balancing environmental ambition with economic realities. Delegates, industry representatives, NGOs, and policymakers have brought forward deeply held convictions about the best way to protect the planet while preserving livelihoods.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 13, 2025 / The United Nations (UN) plastics treaty talks, described as the most important environmental negotiations since the Paris Agreement, are straining under the weight of competing agendas. Over 100 countries and a coalition of scientists, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and policymakers want aggressive measures: production caps, chemical phase-outs, and bans on harmful single-use plastics. On the other side, industry lobbyists and certain governments push for softer, voluntary targets, citing economic concerns.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 12, 2025 / In July 2025, the Plastic Pollution Coalition filed a complaint challenging recyclability claims made about certain types of multilayer plastic packaging. Their argument? That while these materials are often marketed as "recyclable," they rarely make it through real-world recovery systems.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 8, 2025 / Across industries and regions, momentum around recycling has shifted from aspiration to regulation. Governments are now setting minimum recycled content thresholds, enforcing Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws, and pushing for detailed audit trails-all in an effort to accelerate the shift from linear to circular economies.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 7, 2025 / Tariffs have long been part of the global trade landscape-but in recent years, they've shifted from policy lever to front-line strategy. Countries around the world are using them more assertively to shape how goods move, how industries compete, and how economic priorities are protected.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Plastic has shaped the modern world. From packaging and medical devices to industrial goods and consumer products, it's one of the most versatile materials ever created. But its durability has become its burden - once released into the world, plastic rarely finds its way back into productive use.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 6, 2025 / Global trade depends on visibility. But many of the systems industries have long relied on-tags, labels, audits, spreadsheets-weren't built for today's demands. While these tools remain important, they can leave gaps when it comes to full lifecycle traceability and material-level trust.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 29, 2025 / In today's fashion economy, style alone isn't enough. Gen X and Millennial consumers are driving a shift that goes far deeper than seasonal trends. They want to know not just what they're wearing-but who made it, how it was made, and whether it reflects the values they live by. That means ethical sourcing, verified materials, and transparency from origin to outlet. That means for brands, vague sustainability slogans and unverifiable claims no longer cut it.

And Systemiq's latest report, Fossil-Free Plastics: Driving Clean Industrial Leadership in Europe, commissioned by Vioneo, presents a compelling roadmap for reducing carbon emissions from plastic production by accelerating green methanol-to-olefins (MTO) and other fossil-free pathways. It's a vital piece of the puzzle. But there's a critical missing layer-one that can't be filled by chemistry or policy alone.

SMX is creating a pathway that invites GenX and Millennials to capture value from a sustainability market worth billions by 2030

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 28, 2025 / For decades, sustainability markets operated like closed clubs-built by corporations, governments, and financial institutions to serve insiders. Well-meaning mechanisms like carbon credits, ESG funds, and recycled material schemes promised change. But in reality, they delivered profit without accountability, concentration without inclusion, and left most of the world on the sidelines.
