"It brings me joy to create things by hand for my loved ones – whether decorating a room, setting up a new business, helping my children with a school project, or staying organized," says Todryk. "Scotch Brand has been a staple in my drawer and toolbox, helping me create crisp sharp lines whenever I'm painting a room, hanging my children's artwork, labeling notebooks, and so much more. I'm honored to be a part of the brand's centennial celebration and encourage you to capture and make even more moments that stick. Here's to the next hundred years of innovation and making new memories together."
Since the invention of Scotch Masking Tape in 1925, Scotch Brand has grown and evolved into more than one thousand varieties of adhesive tape and products. These solutions are integral to families, friendships, and entire industries — from shipping, packaging, home, and office, to automotive, construction, manufacturing, electronics, and more. Whether it's supporting household repairs or sealing, protecting, insulating, labeling, and holding materials together, Scotch Brand embodies originality, efficiency, and problem-solving as a creative act. A century later, this resourcefulness continues to guide and inspire future innovations.
"You wouldn't think tape has such a rich story around its origin… but it does. This year, we get to celebrate that history and look forward to what's next," says Heather Green, president, Consumer Business Portfolio at 3M. "Innovation is rooted in exploration and discovery, and it is what continues to inspire us to bring new solutions to market every day. As we mark our centennial, we acknowledge the creativity and ingenuity surrounding where we've been, and we are energized for what's to come. Together we will create more, fix more, and do more for the next 100 years!"
