PFAS contamination, regulation and exposure updates

Overview

Research continues to deliver new tools for tackling PFAS, while governments worldwide tighten limits and confront contamination hotspots. In the United States, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit upheld the EPA’s designation of PFOA and PFOS as hazardous substances under CERCLA, a decision that ensures companies can be held liable for cleanup costs under the federal Superfund program.

Europe is advancing stricter regulatory frameworks. The European Union has implemented new restrictions on food contact packaging and, as of October 10, 2026, has prohibited certain consumer products—including cosmetics, clothing, and footwear—if they exceed concentration limits for PFHxA and related substances. In Sweden, new regulations targeting PFHxA and formaldehyde emissions are being implemented, alongside new requirements for firefighting foams. In France, a ‘polluter-pays’ fee for industrial PFAS discharges took effect on September 1, 2026, though critics argue the threshold for state intervention in contaminated water catchment areas has been raised, potentially reducing the number of priority areas.

Contamination concerns persist across Europe. In the Netherlands, Greenpeace reports that PFAS levels in tap water exceed RIVM advisory limits for over one-third of the population, with high concentrations of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) noted in surface water. In Belgium, authorities lifted ‘no regret’ measures in Sint-Joris after confirming contamination at a landfill was contained. Meanwhile, Luxembourg authorities flagged specific models of children’s rainwear for containing prohibited PFAS levels. Recent biomonitoring continues to highlight exposure risks, including studies showing high levels of PFAS in European blood samples and French egg supplies.
