In the wake of the pandemic, there has been a very clear shift in priorities and the air we breathe has become more visible. There is a heightened awareness around what we are breathing and how it is affecting our health. With this focus on healthy, clean air, manufacturers are seeking ways to communicate product claims to the consumer.
As manufacturers scramble to meet these new consumer demands a ‘confusion of claims’ has become problematic and the buyer is struggling to know what to trust. The 3M brand promise of “Science Applied to Life” and their belief in third party certification helps eliminate this ‘confusion of claims’. Third party Certified products, like Asthma & Allergy Friendly® 3M products, provide trust and validation where needed, building consumer confidence and reliability.
