(Ljubljana, Slovenia; Bengaluru, India - 21 May 2021) - The CargoX Platform helps companies build trust in a trustless environment for the logistics, manufacturing, finance, trading, energy, and services industries. It is built on Ethereum, and powered by the Polygon scaling solution. 

It was built with a simple idea to tokenize the most valuable document in ocean shipping - the Bill of Lading - to avoid sending the document with courier services, and to transact it with the help of Polygon, a scaling solution built on Ethereum.

Tokenized document hashes are sent between companies/users as needed using the ERC721 NFT tokens, while highly encrypted documents are stored on a distributed InterPlanetary File System. CargoX has extended the platform to support more than 60 types of documents, among them the financial Letter of Credit, contracts, certificates, and other documents that might need the transfer.  Workflows can be adapted, and escrow services can be implemented.

Polygon has established itself as the go-to Blockchain for high-throughput NFT applications with more than 250+ Decentralized Apps using Polygon’s technology. The collaboration with CargoX is a brilliant use of Polygon’s technology at scale to solve a huge problem faced by the global shipping industry, reducing costs, and increasing speeds in the blockchain implementation.

Sandeep Nailwal, Co-Founder, Polygon: “We are thrilled to work closely with the CargoX Team, a company that is renowned for their Blockchain Data Transfer solutions. The CargoX Platform will help thousands of businesses bring transparency, speed and decentralized accountability by tokenizing Bill of Ladings, and we aim to strongly support their high-speed growth through Polygon’s scaling solutions.
