About Command
Command is the revolutionary damage-free hanging brand from 3M, offering innovative solutions for hanging pictures, organising spaces, and decorating without nails, screws, or wall damage. Launched in 1996, Command has grown to over 200 products and become essential for renters, homeowners, and DIY enthusiasts worldwide. The brand originated from groundbreaking adhesive technology developed by 3M scientists in the late 1980s. Karl Kreckel from Germany discovered an adhesive that was super strong until stretched, and Jim Bries led the team that transformed this into practical hanging solutions. The key innovation is the stretch-release adhesive strip, patented in 1996, which holds strongly then removes cleanly by simply stretching. Command's UK range includes Picture Hanging Strips in small, medium, large, and extra-large sizes, capable of holding frames up to 9kg and measuring 60x90cm. The strips are perfect for creating gallery walls without drilling. General-purpose hooks help organise kitchens, utility rooms, and cupboards for items like brooms, utensils, and coats. Water-resistant bathroom products work on tiles, glass, and painted surfaces. Additional innovations include Adjustables peelable hooks and clips for seasonal decorations, clear hooks for discrete hanging, metal hooks for contemporary looks, and outdoor-rated products. All Command products work on smooth surfaces including painted walls, tiles, glass, and wood, with instructions to wait one hour for the adhesive to bond properly. Compare Command prices across UK retailers including Homebase, Dunelm, Tesco, B&Q, and Amazon with Grocefully to find the best value on damage-free hanging solutions.
