Consumer electronics bonding solutions from 3M

At 3M, we’re known for our tapes, but we’re so much more. We’re a global team by your side from concept to manufacturing. Like you, we have our eye on the future — devices optimized for the IoT, 5G and beyond — and we want to help you navigate it. Whether you’re developing a smartphone, bluetooth speaker, extended reality device, smart home device, or simply need a spark of inspiration, 3M is here to help with a full range of products. From thin-bonding double-sided tapes, adhesive transfer tapes, to foam tapes and liquid adhesives, our market-proven selection of consumer electronics bonding solutions are designed with your needs in mind, so you can keep moving forward.

We understand your design challenges. From impact resistance, to waterproofing and reworkability, we rigorously test our tapes and liquid adhesives and provide the data you need to help predict material behavior. We bring together science and state-of-the-art testing so there’s less time worrying about material capabilities and more time focusing on what your customers desire most — a reliable device with unhindered functionality.
