PCX Markets is here to serve as an extension of your company’s sustainability team. Our dedicated experts will guide you on every step of your plastic responsibility journey, from assessing your plastic footprint and formulating a plastic stewardship strategy to selecting the right portfolio of project partners to meet your specific sustainability goals. We’ll also help you track and communicate the tangible, measurable impact you are delivering to your consumers, employees and other stakeholders.
Let’s crunch some numbers. Reach out to our team at [email protected] to calculate your plastic footprint. This is critical as you develop both your upstream reduction and downstream recovery goals. We can also connect you to a range of third-party auditors who serve as verification/validation bodies (VVBs) in markets across the world.
Discover how your company’s plastic stewardship plan stacks up against competitors. Work with us to develop a strategy that will help your company lead the change. Once your goals have been identified, PCX activates its ecosystem to recover and divert plastic waste from nature through recycling, upcycling or energy recovery.
A growing number of countries are enacting Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) laws that hold producers accountable for waste management and encourage a circular economy. Our team of experts can help you navigate EPR laws, which vary from market to market. We’ll help you meet your obligations, engage with regulators and file submissions to meet regulatory and compliance requirements.

PCX Markets only works with project partners who are registered under the most transparent and rigorous plastic credit standards available today. We currently have credits for select projects on our marketplace which adhere to PPRS, PWRS or OBP.
The Plastic Pollution Reduction Standard (PPRS)
The Plastic Pollution Reduction Standard (PPRS) is administered by PCX Solutions.
All credits issued under PPRS include both collection and recycling/processing in a single credit and every transaction is verified by a 3rd party auditor. The first PPRS version was published in April 2020.
The Plastic Waste Reduction Standard (PWRS)
The Plastic Waste Reduction Standard (PWRS) is administered by Verra. Credits under PWRS include verification and are issued for either collection or recycling. The first PWRS project was accredited in 2022.
The Ocean Bound Plastic (OBP)
Standard is administered by Zero Plastic Oceans. All credits issued under OBP have both collection and recycling in a single credit.
These three standards currently adhere to the most criteria of any tracked by the PREVENT Waste Alliance Guidelines on Minimum Requirements for Plastic Waste Recovery and Crediting Standards.
