    3M Joins Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s CE100 Circular Economy Network

    3M highlights commitment to sustainability in thousands of global products.

    06.24.19
    As part of its commitment to apply science to improve every life, 3M announced that the company has joined the Ellen MacArthur Foundation’s Circular Economy 100 (CE100).
     
    The CE100 platform brings together businesses, innovators, cities, governments and universities committed to collaborate on the transition to a circular economic model built on making the best use of the planet’s resources through designing for the prevention of waste, the reuse of products, and the recycling of materials.
     
    Sustainability is at the heart of 3M innovation. Joining the CE100 is part of 3M’s strategic focus on science for circular, with the ambition to design solutions that do more with less material, advancing a global circular economy.
     
    “3M is moving to more recycled and renewable materials in our product and package designs, but no one company can do it alone,” said Dr. Gayle Schueller, 3M VP and chief sustainability officer. “We are excited to engage with a committed group of leaders focused on innovative approaches to driving a circular economy based on sustainable use and reuse of finite resources.”
     
    This year 3M formally built a commitment to sustainable innovation into the pipeline that produces its thousands of products and technologies. All of 3M’s new products entering the new product commercialization process are required to describe their product’s sustainability impact and how it drives impact for the greater good.
     
    Two new products that demonstrate how 3M scientists innovate to create products that promote recycling and reuse of plastic waste are hitting the market now. Scotch-Brite Heavy Duty Scrub Sponges sold in the US are now made with 100% recycled scrubbing fibers. To create alternative to down, 3M Thinsulate Recycled Featherless Insulation is launching a new product with 100% recycled content from plastic bottles (post-consumer).
     
    Within its supply chains, 3M also continually looks for ways to recover, reuse, and recycle by-products and other waste material. 3M’s Health Care Business Service Group helps extend the life of approximately 150,000 devices each year globally, which keeps electronic waste out of the landfill.
