The Albany Gazette - Your Lunch Wrap Knows Things (And SMX Gave It a Memory)

That's basically what SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is doing, and yes, it's a little wild.

Most packaging looks confident but knows absolutely nothing about itself. Ask it where it came from or whether it's really recycled and it just gestures vaguely at a barcode and hopes you move on.

SMX fixes that by embedding an invisible identity directly into the material itself. Think of it as a microscopic tattoo that never fades, never falls off, and doesn't care how many peanut butter cups it holds. With the right scanner, the packaging can spill its entire backstory instantly.

That's a big deal, because regulators don't accept "trust us" anymore. Especially with food packaging and recycled plastics, companies have to prove materials are safe and compliant. SMX lets them do that without drowning in paperwork thick enough to insulate a house.

And then there's cannabis.

Tracking cannabis has historically been a mess - records here, product there, everyone squinting at spreadsheets. SMX embeds identity into the packaging itself, so the product always knows where it's been. No guessing. No lost files. No "we'll circle back."

The result? Your crackers have a secret diary. Your weed has an ID. And recycled plastics finally come with receipts.

You'll never notice any of this as a consumer - and that's the point. Everything looks the same, works the same, and holds the same snacks. It's just smarter.

So next time you toss a container in the recycling bin, know this: it might have a better memory than you do before coffee - and SMX is the reason why.
