There is some overlap between stock/non-stock and for profit/not-for-profit in that not-for-profit corporations are always non-stock as well. A for profit corporation is almost always a stock corporation, but some for profit corporations may choose to be non-stock.n British English and in the Commonwealth countries, the term company is more widely used to describe the same sort of entity while the word corporation encompasses all incorporated entities.
Richard G. Drew invented double-sided tape while working for the 3M company.
Later, Drew addressed another issue â the need to seal cellophane without water. Drew invented Scotch Cellulose Tape in 1930, giving bakers and grocers a quick, waterproof method to seal packages. Soon, Scotch Brand tape would enter the household, allowing us to make simple fixes to a variety of items. The first countertop tape dispenser, introduced in 1932, was made from cast iron. It weighed nearly seven pounds! Seven years later the company produced the âsnailâ â the handheld tape dispenser. The initial version was made from stamped sheet metal, with a plastic model emerging in 1940.
