SGS, the global testing, inspection and certification company, has announced a complimentary webinar titled “Building Trust Through PFAS Conformity in Softlines,” scheduled to take place on January 15, 2026.
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are facing increasing bans and restrictions worldwide due to their widespread use in consumer products such as textiles, apparel and footwear, as well as their negative impact on human health and the environment. As regulations become more complex, many businesses find it difficult to keep pace without a clear understanding of chemical testing requirements and current safety and quality standards.
During the webinar, SGS experts Anthony Lee and Florence Cheung will share insights into the use of PFAS in softlines and discuss the global regulatory developments influencing the apparel and footwear sectors. The session will also cover PFAS testing methods and present SGS’s solutions designed to help companies meet evolving regulations while responding to growing consumer demand for more sustainable products.
