Designing Solutions That Do More with Less

At 3M, we strive to use technology and expertise to promote a future where resources are circulated and nature is regenerated.

This means developing solutions that do more with less material, advancing a global circular economy.

Why We Chose GreenCircle

“At 3M, applying science to life is a core value, which has driven our Scotch™, Post-it®, and Filtrete™ Brands’ pursuit of recycled raw materials that improve the sustainability of our products without trading off on performance. It is important to us that our consumers know they can trust our sustainability claims, so we had GreenCircle certify that our Post-it® 100% Recycled Paper Super Sticky Notes, Scotch™ Cushion Lock™, and Filtrete™ Air Filters live up to our recycled content claims. Third-party certifications help provide consumers with an assurance that recycled content has been independently verified by a credible, robust process.”
