Other Highlights

3M Company, announced in July 2022 its intent to spin-off its Health Care business, which would result in two public companies. 3M India in collaboration with 3M Company, considered that an exclusive Licensed Manufacturer and Reseller model together with an independent Distribution model was the best arrangement to align with the new Healthcare entity and its affiliates to ensure the continued growth of the Health Care business in India. Board of Directors of 3M India approved above arrangement on 10 Nov 2023. These agreements have an initial term of 5 years and will become effective upon the spin-off of 3M Company’s, Health Care business into a stand-alone, public company. 3M Company expects to complete the global health care spin-off during the first half of 2024.

A Licensed Manufacturer and Reseller model will allow 3M India continued exclusive access to the Health Care products and IP portfolio from the new entity and continued participation in the growing Health Care market in India.
