A French ban on the production and sale of cosmetics and most clothing containing polluting and health-threatening "forever chemicals" goes into force on Thursday.
The French law, approved by lawmakers in February, bans the production, import or sale from January 2026 of any product for which an alternative to PFAS already exists.
I see a loophole. Hopefully it’s difficult to exploit. There are uses for which there are no PFAS alternatives. Also I hope they banned them as a class and not a list of specific substances.
