FPP4EU A sector group of Cefic * European Chemical Industry Council - Cefic aisbl POSITION PAPER JULY 2021 FPP4EU: Ready to build on the PFAS Registry of Intentions As representatives of the producers and users of fluorinated products in the EU, FPP4EU, a Sector Group of Cefic, welcomes the publication of the Registry of Intentions on several PFAS-related chemistries. We are looking forward to working with the five nominating authorities to ensure that the data sets provided to support any forthcoming REACH restriction proposal are as robust and comprehensive as possible. As a group representing PFAS producers and users, we welcome the 15 July 2021 publication of the Registry of Intentions and the associated opportunity to help provide further data and comment on the existing information as appropriate. We look forward to helping to build on those data contained in the publication (and its associated report), in particular, given the complexities of the issue. As producers and users of PFAS, members of FPP4EU are well-placed to provide further details on possible uses and related potential exposure patterns for specific sectors and applications. Where appropriate, FPP4EU could organise targeted workshops to discuss and provide context to these data and be available for discussions on essential use. This, we trust, will ensure that the data sets provided to support any forthcoming REACH resultant restriction proposal are as robust and comprehensive as possible and that any resulting requirements are workable and enforceable for all parties. We stand ready to work with all stakeholders on the PFAS-topic for Europe.
