EU PFAS limits hit clothing and footwear

The European Union is imposing restrictions on PFAS, the so-called forever chemicals, that will affect clothing and footwear manufacturers. Textile companies face pressure to remove the substances from waterproof and stain-resistant products or reformulate them. The rules are expected to force changes across supply chains and prompt discussion about compliance costs and alternatives in the fashion and footwear industries.

Why now: New EU chemical restrictions directly affect manufacturers, brands and consumers of clothing and footwear.
