What you'll learn
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have become a global concern due to their harmful impact on the environment and public health. While PFASs are commonly used in various consumer products because of their water and oil repellent properties, companies are working to find alternatives that don't compromise the functionality of the products. This has resulted in regulations and sustainability efforts to manage and reduce the use of PFASs. In this webinar, our experts will provide a comprehensive overview of the latest updates, offering valuable insights into compliance, challenges, and strategies for managing PFAS.
