About SynergyRecycle.B
Essential information about who we are, what we do, and how our platform works.

SynergyRecycle.B is a technology support platform for the circular economy. We do not collect materials ourselves — we provide the digital infrastructure that connects citizens, collection operators, and businesses through token incentives and tamper-proof material traceability.

We have conducted a pilot in Southern Italy that validated our model with real data (68% user retention, 73% participation, 160T PET/year potential). We are not yet operationally active — we are currently in the pre-seed phase, building the team and finalizing the platform before launch. Our goal is to expand across Europe, starting from markets that lack deposit return systems.

SRb is an ERC-20 utility token deployed on the Polygon network. It is earned as a reward for recycling actions and is not marketed as a financial investment. The token carries a 1.5% transaction fee, split between the Green Treasury (0.9%) and a burn mechanism (0.6%).

Consumer reward: 1 SRb per bottle or can deposited at a certified collection point. Currently available for PET bottles and aluminum cans only.
B2B / Agricultural reward: 3.5 SRb per kg for industrial and agricultural plastic materials — this applies to operators and agribusinesses, not individual citizens.

The Green Treasury is a dedicated wallet that receives 0.9% of every SRb token transaction. These funds are directed toward verified environmental initiatives, including tree planting through our partner Touttree. In a future phase, the Green Treasury will be governed by a Gnosis Safe multi-signature wallet requiring multiple approvals for any disbursement, ensuring transparent and accountable fund management.

Our platform is built on:

  • Polygon blockchain — ERC-20 SRb token and ERC-1155 NFT certificates
  • React + TypeScript + Vite — Consumer app and Dealer Portal frontend
  • Smart contracts — SynergyRecycleB.sol (token) and SRbAgriNFT.sol (agricultural certificates), verified on Sourcify
  • SHA-256 photo hashing — Tamper-proof material verification at deposit

Our headquarters are in Germany. The initial pilot was conducted in Southern Italy, where we validated the model with real users. Our roadmap targets EU markets that lack deposit return systems — primarily Southern and Eastern Europe — before expanding to Northern European markets.

Investor FAQ
Questions from investors
The most common questions we receive from angel investors, family offices, and institutional investors.

We are at pre-seed stage. The technology is built (smart contracts deployed, app UI complete), the pilot has been validated in Southern Italy (real data: 68% retention, 73% participation, 160T PET/year), and we are currently raising pre-seed capital to complete blockchain integration, hire a CTO, and execute our go-to-market launch.

SynergyRecycle.B has two revenue streams:

  • Consumer side: Transaction fees on SRb token flows, advertising on the platform, and data monetization (anonymized ESG data sold to businesses and municipalities)
  • B2B side: Subscription fees for the Dealer Portal, NFT certificate issuance fees for industrial material passports, and ESG reporting API for enterprise clients

30% of all revenues are used for weekly SRb token buybacks, supporting long-term token value.

Pre-seed funding will be used for: (1) hiring a CTO and core development team for blockchain integration; (2) completing the consumer app and deploying to App Store and Google Play; (3) expanding the dealer network in Southern Italy; (4) legal costs for MiCA compliance finalization; (5) marketing and community building for token launch.

Every week, 30% of the platform's material revenues and advertising revenues are automatically used to purchase SRb tokens on the open market. These purchased tokens are returned to the incentive pool, creating a circular economic model: more recycling → more platform revenue → more buybacks → sustained token price → stronger incentive for users to recycle more.

SynergyRecycle.B was co-founded by two complementary profiles: the CEO (background in rehabilitation medicine and active in the blockchain/crypto space since 2017, based in Germany with deep connections to the Southern Italy market where the pilot was conducted) and the CFO (responsible for financial structure, tokenomics, and investor relations). We are actively searching for a CTO to complete the founding team.

Yes. We have completed a full MiCA-compliance review including a Howey test analysis (confirming utility token, not security classification), Token Purchase Agreement, whitelist process for KYC-compliant token distribution, and escrow mechanism documentation. Our Whitepaper v1.0 includes all regulatory disclosures. We recommend investors review the docs and consult their own legal counsel.

Risk Disclosure
Risk factors
As with any early-stage startup and token project, there are risks to be aware of. We disclose them transparently.
High · Technology
Smart contract vulnerabilities
Despite testing on Polygon Amoy testnet, smart contracts may contain undiscovered bugs. A formal third-party audit is planned before mainnet launch.
High · Market
Token price volatility
The SRb token price may fluctuate significantly on open markets. Users should not treat SRb as a financial investment. Past pilot data does not guarantee future value.
Medium · Regulatory
MiCA and future regulation
Cryptocurrency regulation in the EU is evolving. Changes to MiCA or national laws may require adjustments to our token structure, distribution, or operations.
Medium · Business
Market adoption risk
User adoption may be slower than projected. Dealer network expansion depends on partnerships that may take longer to finalize than anticipated.
Medium · Team
Key person dependency
The current team is small. The success of the project depends partly on recruiting a qualified CTO and development team. Delays in hiring may impact our timeline.
Low · Operational
Infrastructure scalability
Polygon's low-cost, high-throughput architecture is designed for scale. Smart contract architecture uses ERC-1155 for batch efficiency. Operational risk here is considered manageable.
