Introduction MedTech Europe, the European voice of the medical technology industry including diagnostics, medical devices and (PFAS), as published in January 2023 and subject to initial exchange at ECHA's scientific committees for Risk Asse MedTech Europe is committed to the ambition of the EU Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability to boost innovation fo to improve the performance of its products and processes, including through the phase out of uses of PFAS where t PFAS in the medical technology sector Where PFAS uses occur in the medical technology sector, this is due to their unique performance and combination either in a component or coating of the final medical device (MD) or in vitro diagnostic device (IVD), including inves or as a processing aid used during device or upstream manufacturing; or in the device part of an integral drug device combination, or as cell replacement therapies, or biomaterials, PFAS substances play a key role in achieving the required high performance and durability of the technologies whic (MDs) and Regulation (EU) 2017/746 on In-Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs).

Comment on Proposed Restriction of PFAS May 25, 2023 Japan Fluoropolymers Industry Association (JFIA) We, Japan Fluoropolymers Industry Association (JFIA), think that fluoropolymers should be distinguished from the proposed restriction of PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), which collectively regulates more than 10,000 of organofluorine compounds (PFAS) on the grouping basis.
