On Sept. 20, 2023, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) published a notice of availability and request for information regarding data specific to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in consumer products in the Federal Register.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals that are characterized by their carbon-fluorine bonds. They are durable and have a diverse array of uses across many consumer products. However, members of the PFAS group have demonstrated the ability to move large distances in the environment and once released, do not break down quickly. Many of the well-studied PFAS may be detrimental to human health, including neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and can negatively impact reproduction and development. Because of these properties, there has been an increase in regulatory action addressing their use in products and presence in the environment. UL has formerly published updates for some of these actions (including\u00a0Additional U.S. States Ban PFAS-Containing Products<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0NEWMOA Publishes Draft of PFAS Model Legislation<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In the request, CPSC notes that data on usage of PFAS in consumer products, exposure risks from product containing PFAS, and potential human health impacts are key topics of interest. Feedback is solicited from all stakeholders (consumers, manufacturers, government agencies, and researchers, among others) to submit. Comments are accepted through Nov. 20, 2023 and may be submitted through Docket No. CPSC\u20132023\u2013 0033 either electronically or by mail.<\/p>\n
