Join our live webinar to get the latest updates to PFAS regulations from across the globe, explore compliance strategies in a trend of tightening regulations and learn how to determine strategies for different products.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a diverse and expanding group of synthetic chemicals and are used in an extensive range of consumer products due to their favorable properties. With increasing attention and research on PFAS, studies are revealing that PFAS can trigger multiple harmful effects to both the environment and human, such as carcinogenicity, reproductive toxicity, hepatotoxicity, bioaccumulation and environmental persistence, which may constitute a major threat to the world.
Within this context, a number of PFAS regulations have been proposed and/or enacted, particularly in the past two years, while the requirements in countries across the world are different in terms of scope and limits, leading to significant complexity for compliance.
In light of the current and upcoming regulations, stringent restrictions and increasing consumer concerns around PFAS, there is a need to figure out a way to steer clear the trap of PFAS. In this webinar, we will provide the latest updates on regulations and give guidance on compliance solutions by materials and product types.
Webinar objectives
To present a clear view and the latest updates of PFAS regulations across the globe (especially for the EU and US), explore the compliance strategies in a trend of tightening PFAS regulations and share how to determine the appropriate strategy and risk management for different products (electronic devices, food contact packaging, waterproofing clothes, etc.).
