One of these laws also restricts clothing and textiles containing certain concentrations of unintentionally added PFAS.<\/p><p><strong>The Impact of PFAS in the Textile Industry<\/strong><\/p><p>PFAS are commonly used in the textile industry to provide water, grease, and stain repellent properties. However, they have been linked to potential health and environmental risks. With the enactment of these significant laws, it is crucial for companies in the sector to act promptly to ensure their products comply with these new regulations.<\/p><p><strong>Regulatory Definition of PFAS in Clothing and Textiles<\/strong><\/p><p>According to the law, &#8220;regulated&#8221; PFAS for Clothing and Textiles are defined as follows:<\/p><ul><li>PFAS that are \u201cintentionally added to a product and that have a functional or technical effect in the product,\u201d including PFAS that are intentional breakdown products of added chemicals;<\/li><li>The presence of PFAS in a product or a component of a product at or above the following limits, measured in total organic fluorine:<ul><li>January 1, 2025: 100 ppm<\/li><li>January 1, 2027: 50 ppm<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><p><strong><br \/>Categories Affected<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Clothing<\/strong>: This category includes garments intended for regular use or formal occasions, such as underwear, shirts, pants, skirts, dresses, suits, bodysuits, costumes, vests, dancewear, suits, sarees, scarves, tops, leggings, school uniforms, casual wear, sportswear, swimsuits for everyday use, formal attire, coveralls, bibs, diapers, footwear, and work uniforms for everyday use.
