St. Paul, Minnesota-based 3M has realigned the company from five to four business segments. The move will enable the company to better serve its global customers and markets, according to 3M.

The four business segments will include transportation & electronics, safety & industrial, health care, and consumer.

Pressure-sensitive vinyl films used in vehicle and building wraps and window film that 3M manufacturers will be relegated under the commercial solutions division in the transportation & electronics business segment. The segment will have estimated annual revenue of $10 billion, according to the company.

The safety & industrial segment includes businesses serving the global industrial, electrical and safety markets. This segment consists of personal safety, adhesives and tapes, abrasives, closure and masking systems, electrical markets, automotive aftermarket, and roofing granules. This segment will have estimated annual revenue of $12 billion, according to 3M.

“We are continuing to advance 3M into the future, and today’s actions will strengthen our ability to meet the fast-moving needs of our customers,” said Mike Roman, 3M CEO. “Our new alignment will leverage our business transformation progress, accelerate growth and deliver greater operational efficiencies.”

The realignment strengthens 3M’s four strategic priorities: portfolio, innovation, transformation, and people & culture. It also positions the company for long-term growth and value creation, according to 3M.

3M will start reporting its financial results under this new structure starting with the second quarter of 2019.
