Meeting the Challenge of PFAS Regulations: Our Expertise
The medical device industry faces increasing scrutiny due to environmental regulations, particularly concerning Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS). Additional justification for their necessity, including superiority to alternative chemicals, may be on the horizon.
As global PFAS regulations evolve, medical device manufacturers must navigate these changes to ensure compliance with PFAS restrictions and bans. Proposed regulations threaten manufacturers’ supply chains, risking critical device shortages with catastrophic patient impacts. Supplier unawareness and internal identification hurdles further compound manufacturing disruptions.
