PFAS have been manufactured and used in products such as make-up, non-stick pans, water- and greaseproof textiles, food-packaging materials and firefighting foam since the 1950s and are still used in a wide variety of products around the world today. But these "forever chemicals" accumulate in the environment and can cause health impacts.
This step-by-step guide makes it easy to identify PFAS in products and gives guidance on how to phase them out as well. It is a great resource to help companies looking to ensure that their products are PFAS-free.
The main feature of the guide is the searchable database uncovering different PFAS uses and functions, but the online tool also provides guidance on different aspects of the phase-out process from regulation and investigation all the way to testing and supply chain communication.
