Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a group of chemicals that have been used in certain consumer products for their ability to resist water and stains.
Such products include cookware, clothing, furniture, and building materials. In recent years, PFAS has been restricted by various regulations in the European Union because of their toxicity to humans and the environment.
In this video, we cover examples of products that might contain PFAS, as well as regulations that restrict them, including REACH, the POPs Regulation, and the Regulation 10/2011.
