\n New digital assistant helps customers evaluate 3M materials, compare options and solve application challenges<\/i>\n <\/p>\n

\n ST. PAUL, Minn.<\/span>, June 22, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a03M has launched Ask 3M<\/a>, a new AI-powered digital assistant that gives industrial customers direct, self-service access to 3M technical expertise. Available now at\u00a0ask.3m.com<\/a>, the tool helps users evaluate 3M materials, compare options, and address application challenges more efficiently.<\/p>\n

“Our customers rely on 3M for deep application expertise and collaborative problem-solving across a wide range of industries,” said Chris Goralski, Group President, Safety and Industrial Business Group, 3M. “Ask 3M extends that expertise in a new way, giving customers faster, more direct access to the information they need to evaluate options and make decisions.”<\/p>\n

Ask 3M’s responses are built on verified documentation and application knowledge across the company’s 49 technology platforms. The conversational AI experience currently focuses on industrial adhesives and tapes, with plans to expand into additional categories over time.<\/p>\n

Customers can ask questions in plain language and receive quick answers on topics such as finding the right 3M adhesive or tape for specific applications, locating information on 3M products, and identifying recommended methods for solving problems. By simplifying product discovery and technical exploration, Ask 3M supports a smoother, more self-directed experience for finding information and choosing a suitable 3M solution.<\/p>\n

During Ask 3M’s testing and development phase, a production engineer in the industrial manufacturing sector used the tool to address an active engineering challenge: bonding polypropylene thermoplastic to insulation foam in a sheet metal assembly within a 24-hour cure window.<\/p>\n

“It took a very basic question and it helped us unfold all the other needs in order to pinpoint a product,” he said. “It’s definitely a tool that we would use on a daily basis.”<\/p>\n

Questions can cover both 3M product information and specific application challenges, such as:<\/p>\n
