3M “Sticks Up” for the Planet with NEW Eco-Friendly Scotch Tape

ST. PAUL, Minn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–From hybrid cars to environmentally conscious cleaning products, many Americans are putting a priority on finding new eco-friendly products that meet everyday needs. In 1961, 3M offered people a new, convenient home and office necessity with the invention of Scotch® Magic™ Tape – know for being frosty on the roll, invisible on paper and easy to write upon. Now, in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of Scotch Magic Tape, 3M is continuing the innovation by launching the first-of-its-kind Scotch Magic Eco-Friendly Tape.

“We’re so excited to offer an eco-friendly version of the Scotch Magic Tape people know, love and use on a daily basis”

Scotch Magic Eco-Friendly Tape (including refillable dispenser, packaging and tape) is made from more than 75 percent renewable or recycled materials. The boxed refill roll, including packaging, is made from more than 65 percent renewable or recycled materials. Because of its great adhesive strength, photo-safe formulation and performance, Scotch Magic Tape has been a fixture in homes, schools and offices for 50 years. Scotch Magic Eco-Friendly Tape offers these same great properties, now in an even more environmentally-friendly version.

“We’re so excited to offer an eco-friendly version of the Scotch Magic Tape people know, love and use on a daily basis,” said Pete Ley, Business Unit Manager for Scotch Home and Office Tapes at 3M. “We believe this is a great innovation during a time when people really are looking for those everyday things they can do to lessen their impact on the environment.”

Scotch Magic Eco-Friendly Tape is available at mass merchandisers, office superstores, drug, grocery and craft stores nationwide, and online retailers. More details are available on the Where to Buy section of ScotchBrand.com. The suggested retail price is $2 – $4 for the refillable dispenser, which comes with a 600-inch roll of eco-friendly tape and $5 – 7 for a two-pack of 900-inch refill rolls of eco-friendly tape.

“Ecommando” is an action packed Web series that follows Ex-Navy Seal and environmentally clueless Leon Green (Jason Nash, star of Atom.com’s “The Shaman” and “Jason Nash Is Married”).

Armed with his perma-stoned car, Bro (voiced by David Cross, “Arrested Development”), the duo becomes “the newest environmental disaster.” Can Leon get over his tough guy attitude long enough to take on the bad guys and save the day?

Joe Veilleux doesn’t view himself as an environmentalist, but he understands how his actions might paint him with that brush. “I’m not an environmentalist,” said Veilleux, general manager of the U.S. operations of natural health ingredient manufacturer Euromed. “I’m a pragmatist. There’s a difference. A lot of environmentalists have characterized their cause as one that pits them directly against corporate America. I’m part of corporate America, but I also recognize the debt I owe to the environment and want to do my fair share to protect it. In the long run, it’s just good for business and there are plenty of examples throughout history of how our environment is one of our most valuable natural resources.” Veilleux’s company is partner with the Everglades Foundation in a campaign dubbed Glade-iator (www.glade-iator.org), which is a model of the public-private partnership Veilleux believes is good for business.
