3M Launches New Easy Open Poly Mailer Envelope
Advanced Design Simplifies Opening to Prevent Product Damage
CHICAGO (November 8, 2004) - 3M (NYSE: MMM), the industry leader in packaging tapes and equipment, announced today the availability of the 3M Easy Open Poly Mailer at the 2004 Pack Expo Conference. The patented design of the 3M easy open poly mailer provides a unique one-pull tear strip that simplifies opening poly mailer shipping envelopes.
The 3M easy open poly mailer is made of strong plastic film and features a user-friendly internal tear tape with a die-cut pull tab. 3M poly mailers are printable and can be customized with retailers and carriers' own brands. 3M easy open poly mailers are also available with double adhesive sealer strips for reuse for return shipping. The tear strip of the easy open poly mailer is more durable and resistant to premature opening in the transportation environment than poly mailers with perforated tear strips. The 3M easy open poly mailer is available in multiple sizes and with bubble-wrap cushioned sides for shipping items that need added protection.
"Consumers who have difficulty opening poly mailer packages may accidentally damage the contents when using scissors or a knife to open them," said David Wagner, marketing manager, 3M Industrial Tapes and Adhesives Division. "The convenient tear strip opening feature of the 3M easy open poly mailer can help prevent content damage, reduce product return costs for retailers or carriers and enhance the company's image."
Customers including Canada Post, Canada's postal service are using the 3M easy open poly mailer shipping envelopes. The 3M easy open poly mailer is available through 3M and suppliers such as Belle-Pak Packaging, Inc., Markham, Canada.
