PFAS Certification: A Practical Framework for Managing PFAS Risk
PFAS risk is no longer defined by chemical restrictions alone. Global and regional frameworks continue to expand, including the Stockholm Convention, EU REACH, Washington’s Safer Products programme, Canada’s class‑based CEPA approach, France’s national restrictions, and TSCA reporting. Increasingly, PFAS is being enforced and accountability is being placed directly on brands rather than on materials.
Recent enforcement actions have shown that a documented phase‑out of intentionally‑added PFAS and a total organic fluorine cap, on their own, do not offer sufficient protection for brands.
In this environment, a test report, RSL, and chain of custody alone are no longer sufficient. They document input, but do not demonstrate ongoing control and leave room for gaps and risk
Join experts from Eurofins Sustainability Services to explore how our PFAS Certification Programme can support more consistent and defensible risk management.
This Programme connects testing, supply‑chain control, and independent verification into a single system. Depending on the level of assurance required, it integrates:
- Targeted, risk‑based analytical testing to identify PFAS presence.
- Structured review of chemical management and supply chain controls.
- Independent verification through on‑site audits and surveillance
