About 3M Command in Australia
In the late 1980s, Karl Kreckel, a 3M scientist from Germany started building excitement over a new adhesive tape that was super strong until it was stretched. Knowing there was something there; 3M tapped Jim Bries in 1992 to lead a product development team charged with applying this groundbreaking adhesive to a problem that has troubled homeowners since the dawn of time: how to hang items on walls without nails, screws, tools, or damage.
After making the impossible possible and with the Command™ Brand name in place, Bries and the team were a go for launch. In 1996, 3M debuted its first wave of Command™ products; medium and large utility hooks, a small cord clip, poster strips, and replacement strips.
It didn’t take long for customers to take notice and get the hang of things. Shortly after the initial release, Command™ Brand launched their second wave; spring clips, picture hangers, and decorating clips. By 1999, just 3-years after its debut, the Command™ product line were in the black to a tune of $10 million. The people had spoken.
Hearing the demands of their fans for new ways to organize and decorate damage-free loud and clear, Command™ Brand entered the 21st century with innovation in their eyes and ideas on their mind. Knowing and embracing their standing in the new DIY-volution, Command™ launched a line of bathroom-focused products in 2004, picture hanging strips in 2005, metal hooks in 2007, and clear hooks in 2012. Never resting on their laurels, Jim and his team reformulated their indoor strip to keep up with the ever-evolving paint chemistries in 2015.
While it’s ultimately up to our consumers to help drive our innovation, that doesn’t mean we’re just sitting back waiting. If you were to stop by the Command™ lab today, you’d see thousands of products being tested on hundreds of different surfaces. We’re always innovating, improving, and staying true to the vision set forth by Jim Bries and his team.
In fact, we currently have more than 200 damage-free hanging solutions on the market, with many more ideas in the works. Rest assured, whatever we think of next will help empower you to fearlessly decorate and change your space.
