Q 3M advocates for a balanced regulatory environment based on scientific facts to ensure European industries remain competitive and sustainable. 3M & PFAS as a practical example: Q 3M manufactures, imports, uses, and supplies various PFAS and PFAS containing products for numerous, primarily industrial,applications. y Q We produce in Zwijndrecht, Belgium & Gendorf, Germany (2 out of 44 sites). ess | Q 3M participated to Calls for Evidence related to evaluating restriction options for PFAS. 50ps8 vnA , Ctr am . Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability Need to maintain consistency between different Green Deal objectives. > Keep the chemicals policy framework in Europe proportionate& science based. Maintain regulatory predictability for investments: the REACH regulation is a success story and is achieving its objectives. Let's preserve the established norms and framework. It takes time to implement agreed targets, and constantly `moving the goalposts' can be both costly and wasteful. Itis critical that the re-opening of REACH & the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) Regulation remains "surgical". Let's build on what has been successfully achieved to date and not change the foundations.

Itis critical that grouping is based on solid scientific standards and applied coherently across REACH independently of its purpose. IA Comp250.
