This internal milestone provides a comprehensive analysis of the regulatory landscape concerning per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) across Europe.
PFAS are recognized for their environmental persistence, bioaccumulative properties, and potential health risks. These properties highlight the urgent need for effective regulations to mitigate exposure and protect human health and the environment.
The document maps out existing and previous national legislations among European countries and compares these with EU regulations, particularly focusing on restrictions on production and use, maximum levels in drinking water and food products as well environmental quality standards.
