Our latest SGS Live panel explores how businesses can meet the challenges of swiftly evolving PFAS regulations.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are increasingly the subject of prohibitive or restrictive legislation due to their negative effects on human and environmental health. The topic has become so prominent that it now goes far beyond the traditional quality and compliance bubble, reaching mass media through numerous reports on these “forever chemicals”.
As consumers and brands place greater emphasis on conscious living and intentionality in product choices and supply chain practices, navigating the complex PFAS regulatory landscape becomes even more critical.
In this session, SGS experts Valérie Cimetiere, Global Softlines Expert, and Frank Kempe, Global Technical Manager, discuss the challenges faced by the industry and provide practical insights on complying with evolving legislation and reducing risk across the value chain.
Watch and discover how your business can ensure compliance with resilience and responsibility.
