Description

Post-it is the world’s most iconic sticky note brand, owned by 3M and launched nationally on April 6, 1980, following the accidental discovery of a low-tack pressure-sensitive adhesive by 3M scientist Spencer Silver in 1968 who was actually trying to create a super-strong glue. After five years of Silver pitching his solution without a problem, fellow 3M scientist Art Fry realized Silver’s adhesive could keep his church choir hymnal bookmarks in place without leaving residue, and a global office staple was born. Now sold in more than 100 countries and ranking among the five best-selling office products in the United States, Post-it offers sticky notes, super sticky notes, recycled notes, flags, tabs, easel pads, dry erase surfaces, and a companion digital app. Products are consistent Amazon USA bestsellers with strong office, education, and creativity demand backed by the 2026 Pantone Color of the Year Cloud Dancer collaboration.
