The PFAS challenge

PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are essential chemicals in today’s electronics manufacturing processes. PFAS pose a serious dilemma for the electronics industry as emerging global regulations are trending towards restricting the use of PFAS in the future.  

A STEP BEYOND PFAS REGULATION
We recognize the undesirable impact PFAS have on the environment and humans and we anticipate the change of regulations worldwide regarding PFAS. Therefore, we are taking a proactive approach and are committed to looking for alternatives to PFAS.
