Unlike traditional floor pads that rely on the application of hazardous chemicals, the latest premium floor pads from 3M are designed to be used with neutral detergent or water, making them a responsible choice for the environment.

The polyester fibres used to make 3M™ Scotch-Brite™ Premium Floor Pads contain a minimum of 50 per cent recycled content and they are washable and reusable, helping to further reduce waste.

In addition, the packaging used for the range contains 75-100 per cent recycled content and the material is fully recyclable.

Said Sustainability business project manager, Romy Kenyon: “We are committed to developing sustainable solutions that outperform their conventional alternatives and to manufacturing them in a way that minimises our environmental footprint.

“Our floor pads are made in facilities that operate under a philosophy of operational excellence and both our US and French plants have been certified to the ISO 14001 environmental standard.”
