Topic
Simplifying PFAS Chaos for Effective Risk Management for Manufacturers
Date & Time

Selected Sessions:

Jul 12, 2023 06:00 PM

Description
Each day, manufacturers have to decipher new information surrounding the emerging contaminant, PFAS (per and polyalkyl substances), often called “forever chemicals.” PFAS is getting worldwide attention, so the more knowledge the industry can gather, and the sooner risk management planning can be completed, the better prepared manufacturers can be to mitigate environmental, brand, and financial risk. This presentation will simplify the chaos, starting with a brief primer on the nature of PFAS and common sources. Jack Sheldon, a senior consultant with Antea Group, will explore intentional versus unintentional addition of PFAS into products. Emphasis will be placed on understanding PFAS risk to business operations through a desktop assessment, and the critical steps a manufacturer can take to manage PFAS risk will be shared. Regulatory, insurance, and legal developments surrounding PFAS will be highlighted, particularly recent product bans in specific states. The webinar will conclude with new treatment technology developments that offer promise for better PFAS management in the future.
