CE100 aims to make the best use of the planet’s resources through designing for the prevention of waste, the reuse of products, and the recycling of materials.

3M has this year built a commitment to sustainable innovation into the pipeline that produces its products and technologies. All of 3M’s new products entering the new product commercialisation process are required to describe their product’s sustainability impact and how it drives impact for the greater good.

Among its latest products to promote recycling and reuse of plastic waste is 3M Thinsulate Recycled Featherless Insulation, a featherless down alternative insulation made with 100% recycled plastic waste.
