We are building the critical infrastructure layer for the global circular economy. Here is our impact, our story, our technology — and the people and organisations who trust us.
Tonnes of material verified on-chain since protocol launch
Tonnes of CO₂ equivalent offset through verified recycling
Countries with certified collection infrastructure connected
Tokens distributed to depositors, facilities and municipalities
Facilities routinely misreport material quantities and quality grades. Without on-chain verification, there is no way to audit claims — and billions in ESG credits are based on fiction.
Once material leaves a collection point, it disappears from view. Corporations paying for "certified recycling" have no way to verify what actually happened to their waste.
Consumers and communities receive nothing for recycling correctly. Without tangible rewards, participation rates stagnate — and recyclable materials end up in general waste.
Thousands of incompatible systems, standards and databases. There is no shared layer connecting municipalities, facilities, enterprises and consumers into a single auditable chain.
HEM REX solves all four problems simultaneously — with one verifiable, incentivised, open protocol.
From European municipalities to Asian industrial hubs — HEM REX nodes are live and processing verified recycling events in real time.
A team of environmental engineers, blockchain developers and circular economy specialists comes together around one conviction: the recycling industry needs a trustless verification layer. The company is incorporated and R&D begins.
The HEM REX protocol goes live on testnet. Smart contracts, IoT integration layer, and validator node architecture are deployed and stress-tested with 3 pilot collection points in Bulgaria and Germany.
HEM REX signs its first official municipal integration agreement. The city's waste collection infrastructure is connected to the protocol — the first real-world, on-chain verified recycling events are recorded.
The protocol crosses 1 million verified on-chain recycling events — a major validation of the model. HRX token distribution begins. Partner count reaches 12 nations across Europe and Asia.
HEM REX is formally recognised as an aligned initiative under the EU Green Deal framework. Enterprise ESG module launched — Fortune 500 companies begin issuing HEM REX-verified recycling certificates.
HEM REX operates as the Global Circular Standard across 48 nations, with 4.2M+ tonnes verified, 892K tonnes of CO₂ offset, and a growing network of municipal, enterprise and developer partners worldwide.
Our partners span municipalities, industrial groups, standards bodies, and EU institutions — all united by a commitment to a verifiable circular economy.
From a physical recycling bin to an on-chain token — four layers, zero trust required.
Smart sensors in certified bins scan barcodes, weigh materials, and classify by type. Data is signed with a hardware key and transmitted in real time.
Each deposit creates an immutable transaction on the HEM REX chain — including material type, weight, GPS coordinates, timestamp and facility ID.
Decentralised validator nodes cross-check sensor data against facility certifications. Consensus is reached before the event is confirmed and credited.
HRX tokens are minted and distributed via smart contract. ESG certificates and carbon credits are generated automatically for enterprise partners.
City and regional governments looking to improve recycling rates, reduce fraud, and meet EU waste targets — while generating new revenue streams for residents.
Corporations needing auditable ESG credentials, carbon credit generation, and supply chain transparency for materials used and recovered in their operations.
Startups, recycling platforms and sustainability apps that need a reliable, verified backend for material flow data, token mechanics and ESG reporting.

FinTech Global ESG Awards — Best Blockchain Application in Environmental, Social and Governance reporting.
United Nations Environment Programme recognition for deploying digital technology in service of planetary sustainability goals.
Awarded by the Bulgarian Startup Association for exceptional growth, international impact and technological innovation.
European Recycling Industries Confederation award for most impactful technology contribution to verified circular material flows.
Integrating HEM REX reduced our municipal recycling fraud by 94% in the first quarter alone. The on-chain verification gave our city council the transparency they had been demanding for years — and residents now actively compete to earn HRX tokens.
Our ESG team had spent two years trying to verify our recycling claims for CSRD reporting. With HEM REX, every certificate is on-chain, immutable, and auditor-ready in minutes. It has completely transformed how we approach sustainability reporting.
We built our entire recycling rewards app on the HEM REX API in six weeks. The documentation is excellent, the sandbox worked perfectly, and the team was responsive throughout. It is by far the most reliable environmental data infrastructure we have used.
We piloted HEM REX across 14 collection facilities in three countries. The material tracking accuracy exceeded 99.2% — far beyond anything we had achieved with manual auditing. The validator network is genuinely decentralised and trustworthy.
