ECHA Publishes Draft Mapping of PFAS Uses to Support SEAC Consultation
On 7 November 2025 the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) published a draft mapping of PFAS uses to support the upcoming consultation on the Committee for Socio-Economic Analysis’s (SEAC) draft opinion concerning the proposed PFAS restriction under REACH. The document is intended to assist stakeholders in preparing for the consultation by identifying and describing relevant PFAS uses across the industrial, professional, and consumer sectors. The draft is available on ECHA’s website here.
Covers 14 sectors and PFAS manufacturing
The consultation will include sector-specific questions across 14 sectors, as well as PFAS manufacturing, to collect stakeholder input at the appropriate use level. Stakeholders are encouraged to consult the draft mapping when gathering information relevant to their specific applications.
A more detailed version of the mapping will be published after the SEAC meeting in December 2025, while the final version will be made available when the consultation opens in spring 2026. Details of the consultation process and expected timeline can be found here.
