Overview

A PFAS Solution for an Urgent Global Focus

The consequences for having per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in your products are increasing, due to the health and environmental risks they present. Regulations are on the rise, and companies using PFAS face lawsuits, market access loss, and product obsolescence. 

What you don’t know can put you at risk. PFAS in your supply chain can result in:

  • Unplanned product redesigns
  • Scarcity as competition for PFAS-free parts grows
  • Lower profits as customers switch to PFAS-free products
  • Insurers and investors divesting themselves of liability

That’s why you need solutions that help you comply with existing PFAS requirements.

PFAS Are Everywhere, Making Compliance Difficult

Additionally, PFAS compliance requires:

  • Working with suppliers to identify PFAS in your supply chain, in both finished goods and operations
  • Possibly removing PFAS or finding alternative substances
  • Gathering information and data to meet new reporting requirements

Challenge

You Can’t Comply Without Knowing Your Supply Chain

To identify PFAS in your products, you need to know which PFAS, if any, exist in your supply chain. That requires immense amounts of data — safety data sheets or product testing alone won’t be enough. You’ll need to engage your suppliers.

Many compliance teams are not prepared for this resource-intensive task.
