3M

3M or the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, has treated the media to a tour of their facility along the SLEX in Makati. This tour was an eye-opener for me. Only then did I realize that 3M is more than just Post-it notes, Scotch tape and Scotch Brite (which I regularly keep in my kitchen). 3M is everywhere: keeping glass windows together in high-rise buildings, making cable TV and landline connections work and even helping hospital patients feel more comfortable and heal faster.

At the height of the AH1N1 scare, 3M masks were at the forefront of protection. People who needed serious protection turned to 3M masks and nothing else.

3M also makes solar energy usable with their innovative solutions. 3M also develops solutions for the automotive industry. 

3M engineers have always put the environment at the top of their agenda. All of their R&D are geared towards the protection of Mother Nature and to exclusively make products that do not contribute to Her destruction. This photo says it all. 3M and Mother Nature DO co-exist.
