Per and Polyfluoroalkyl Substance PFAS Testing
category
PFAS testing in textiles quantifies the extremely persistent fluorinated organic compounds used as durable water repellent finishes, soil release agents, and processing aids across the textile supply chain using LC-MS/MS targeted methods, total fluorine screening, and extractable organofluorine analysis to support regulatory compliance and transition to fluorine-free alternatives.
Role
Addresses the rapidly expanding global regulatory restrictions on PFAS compounds in textiles by providing comprehensive analytical coverage of both legacy long-chain PFAS and their short-chain and non-fluorinated replacements, enabling brands to substantiate fluorine-free claims and manage PFAS supply chain liability across complex textile product portfolios.
