Members Gymnast Posted August 7, 2022 Members Report Posted August 7, 2022 If you have looked the news recently, there have been a rapidly rising global concern regarding PFAS in the environment. Nine states in US have come up with strict restrictions on PFAS in products. EU is still talking about it for a long time. So I think everybody in our business needs to think about, what we use, and try to avoid products, that contain PFAS or creates PFAS when produced. Factories that produce PTFE (Teflon) are leaking PFAS to the environment. I know that we got lubricants for sewing machines, that contain both PTFE or PFAS like Triflow. We also got some fabrics and sewing threads with PTFE in them. I noticed this note regarding lubricants: https://www.ri.se/en/there-are-no-justifiable-reasons-to-use-ptfe-in-bike-lubes Quote
