PFAS: Strategic Approaches for Chemical Industry Compliance - Changes to regulations and restriction

Together with ALS Czech Republic, we bring you an exclusive webinar series offering insights into the world of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The three-part series will bring together regulatory experts from REGARTIS and environmental laboratories professionals of ALS Czech Republic to address PFAS from environmental risks to the evolving regulatory landscape and analytical challenges.

First, we will explore their uses, environmental hazards, and restriction efforts. The second part will be focused on analytics, helping attendees understand PFAS testing in various matrices and the implications of their widespread environmental presence. Finally, the series will offer a discussion on regulatory processes, compliance strategies, and the technical aspects of PFAS analysis, such as sampling rules and possible matrices types. The core aim of the series is to provide chemical industry stakeholders with the knowledge to effectively manage PFAS compliance and analysis both.

Changes to regulations and restriction

• Mgr. Yana Tributsyna

The first session by REGARTIS will look into restrictions of PFAS under consideration due to their adverse effects and persistence in the environment. We will also discuss the global emissions and presence of PFAS and outline the upcoming regulatory changes. These include a detailed look at already restricted PFAS, the REACH restriction process, and new proposals that could impact a broad array of PFAS compounds.
