Product safety and stewardship
- Screening of raw material/product portfolios and assessing production processes to identify the potential for PFAS to be present in products
- Identification and analysis of regulatory requirements for the manufacture or sale of products containing PFAS
- Evaluating the toxicity, persistence and degradation of PFAS in products sold in various markets around the world
- Assessing exposure to the environment (mass balances, releases to water and air, residuals in articles, including end-of-life assessment)
- Conducting human health and environmental risk assessments for products manufactured or treated with PFAS
- Evaluating potential alternatives to PFAS in products through comparative hazard assessments
- Technical support in dialog and negotiations between regulatory agencies and product manufacturers or distributors (e.g. calls for evidence, public consultations)
