15 ADVERTISING FEATURE A revolutionary new shipping solution from 3M has arrived The Scotch™ brand from 3M has announced a new addition to its product portfolio – a revolutionary shipping solution. It can be a real struggle to find the correct sized box or packaging, to safely wrap and protect your product ready for sending, but with Scotch™ Flex & Seal Shipping Roll there is a new, much simpler solution. Suitable for businesses of all sizes, this new, revolutionary product will not only save you time, but space and supplies too. Featuring a durable three-layer construction that provides water and tear resistance, Scotch™ Flex & Seal Shipping Rolls eradicate the need for packing paper, tape, envelopes and cardboard boxes. And with an integrated cushioned layer, businesses can also cut down on padding materials and fillers. Scotch™ Flex & Seal Shipping Roll conforms to the shape of the item you are wrapping, making it a perfect solution for oddly shaped objects that can be a hassle to send. Using carefully engineered adhesive technology, the cushioned roll only sticks to itself, and not its contents, forming a secure seal. Simply cut the exact amount of wrapping required, fold and seal. Better still, Scotch™ Flex & Seal Shipping Roll reduces the size of the overall package and holds products tightly so they won’t move around in transit. Scotch Flex & Seal (38cm x 3m and 38cm x 6m) is available now from Amazon, Viking and Lyreco. RRP from £9.99. ABOUT 3M At 3M, we apply science in collaborative ways to improve lives daily.
