How Plastic Bank uses Blockchain
Hybrid blockchain for real-world efficiency

Key benefits of our hybrid approach:
Plastic Bank has proudly implemented a cutting-edge hybrid blockchain solution that seamlessly integrates blockchain verification with our PostgreSQL database. This allows us to combine immutable trust with real-time performance, especially in vulnerable communities.
- Immutable Trust: Every transaction is cryptographically anchored, with blockchain verification ensuring that our PostgreSQL data remains unaltered and audit-ready.
- Efficiency: Real-time app usage and reporting work even in low-data environments, making the system practical and inclusive.
- Environmental Sustainability: Designed to be energy-efficient, our blockchain solution aligns with our commitment to low-carbon operations.
- System Integrity: Ongoing quarterly and annual verification cycles maintain consistency and reliability across systems.
- Client Confidence: Clients gain real-time, verifiable data they can trust — no greenwashing, no uncertainty, just proof.
Trust as infrastructure
Our blockchain architecture doesn’t just validate — it creates trust as a core service, enabling partnerships, funding, and compliance in a transparent, secure way.
How Plastic Bank uses Artificial Intelligence
AI enables personalization, fraud prevention, and operational support.
User profiling & gamified engagement
Our AI engine powers the Impact Guide — creating personalized, purpose-driven journeys for individuals and businesses based on real usage data and behavioural patterns.
Fraud detection through pattern recognition
AI is used to identify fraud and abuse by scanning for irregular patterns in plastic collection behaviour, transaction histories, and system access logs — improving both internal safeguards and external accountability.
AI-Powered user support
Across all platforms, AI tools provide automated assistance, contextual guidance, and intelligent support, improving onboarding, retention, and operational efficiency.
What Plastic Bank can scale with zero marginal cost
Plastic credit creation, delivery & verification
Every credit is issued, tracked, and audited digitally — with no extra cost per unit or transaction.
Automated auditing & compliance
Our systems use blockchain and AI to generate real-time, audit-ready reports that scale with client usage — not headcount.
User onboarding, profiling & engagement
From global brands to individual households, our platform delivers personalized experiences at scale without extra human involvement.
Algorithmic end-to-end Traceability
PlasticChain algorithmically links each transfer of material — from every individual seller — all the way to the processor who purchased and recycled it.
- This allows every shipment to be traced back to its origin
- Every Plastic Credit can be tied directly to a verified recycling outcome
Authentic credit scoring for every user
Each user — from informal collector to supply chain partner — is assigned a dynamic credit score based on platform behaviour, unlocking future financial services.
Interest-free token advance
Users can qualify for, receive, and repay tokenized advances — interest-free — with all eligibility, delivery, and repayment handled algorithmically and instantly, at zero marginal cost.
