What PFAS limits apply to products in France and the EU?

421 questions from 58 articles available in English.

In France, a product covered by the ban must not exceed 25 ppb for each PFAS measured by targeted analysis, 250 ppb for their sum, and 50 ppm for all PFAS together, polymers included. The EU packaging regulation sets the same values for food-contact packaging. The targeted EU restrictions, such as those on PFOA or PFHxA, use 25 ppb for the substance concerned and its salts, with a higher threshold for related substances.
