“There is a reason you don’t see paper, glass, or metal polluting our streets. It’s because the market has assigned a value to that material,” says Nanette Medved-Po, Founder of PCX Markets and PCX Solutions.  “We need to do that for plastic.” At PCX, we believe that businesses have an incredible opportunity to help end plastic pollution. Through plastic credits, companies can take responsibility for their plastic footprint, help fund waste management infrastructure, and incentivize the collection of even low-value plastics that otherwise wind up in streets, rivers, and oceans in developing countries. Join us in our mission to accelerate the transition to a circular economy - and build a future where no plastic ends up in nature.

♻️Monde Nissin Corporation is on a roll! The company behind your favorite noodles and crackers is serious about sustainability, bringing PCX Markets all the way to Cebu for an info session at its plant. PCX Markets Sustainability Lead Kathleen Ilagan talked about the plastic crisis and how Monde Nissin's compliance with the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Act helps advance a circular economy. The event was attended by members from the Cebu plant, led by Daniel Marcelo, Plant Head of Monde Nissin Mandaue Site, along with representatives from the Sustainability Team and the Corporate Government Affairs Team. Through its commitment, Monde Nissin went beyond EPR compliance, achieving 100% diversion last year—and they’re aiming to uphold this standard in 2024. A key highlight of the visit was witnessing the Aling Tindera Program in action. Monde Nissin’s support, in partnership with PCX and HOPE, has driven real change by contributing to this program - empowering communities to collect and responsibly dispose of plastics. A heartfelt thank you to the HOPE team for organizing such an inspiring visit to experience the Aling Tindera's impact firsthand! Like Monde Nissin, your company can make meaningful strides too toward a sustainable future. Work with us now: www.pcxmarkets.com #PCXMarkets #EPR #plasticcredits #plasticresponsibility

One of the most common questions I get when sharing the work we are doing at PCX is how our offering of plastic credits compares to carbon credits. While there are many nuanced similarities and differences, the simplest response is "same basic mechanism, quite different application." This is based on both the inherent structural differences between plastic and carbon as well as the learnings (positive and negative) we have been able to apply from the efforts to deliver impact through carbon credits over time. Please take a look at what we say here, and happy to engage in constructive dialog and debate as always! Let's get to work.... #pcx #plasticwaste #sustainability #globalplasticstreaty

Good job, Mentos Philippines for upcycling plastic waste into bus terminal benches to provide commuters a refreshing pit stop during Undas! Perfetti Van Melle is a fantastic example of how businesses can help fund the cleanup of plastic waste, bringing much-needed financing to our country’s emerging waste management sector, while also creating a circular economy by driving demand for the final product. Your company too can start its sustainability journey. Book a consultation here: bit.ly/3WEpnJY
