PFASs to be restricted throughout the EU
The EU's planned ban on the entire group of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) would put many industrial processes at risk according to the German engineering federation, the Verband Deutscher Maschinen- und Anlagenbau (VDMA). PFAS stands for a group of several thousand individual chemicals. They are characterised by being very stable and water, dirt and grease repellent.
