FAQ
EU Regulation 2024/2462 restricts certain PFAS, particularly PFHxA and related substances.
Since 10 October 2026, the restrictions have applied, among other things, to consumer clothing, footwear and textile coating mixtures supplied to consumers. From 10 October 2027, further consumer textiles, such as carpets and upholstery fabrics, will be covered.
The regulation is not a general ban on PFAS. Whether a product remains permitted depends on its composition, the applicable legal limits and its intended use.
CCM offers textile coatings 695 and 7656, which can repel oil and grease as well as water.
These products contain small amounts of fluorinated active ingredients that provide moderate oil and grease repellency.
They therefore offer an alternative to conventional C6 technologies. Whether a product may be used for a particular application depends on its composition and the applicable legal requirements.
C4 and C6 are fluorinated technologies used to repel water, oil and grease. C4 has shorter fluorinated carbon chains than C6.
CCM offers C4 as an alternative to conventional C6 technology. Water repellency is maintained, while oil and grease repellency may be somewhat lower.
C4 may remain permitted for applications such as footwear and clothing where certain C6 substances are now restricted, provided the product complies with all applicable regulations.
C4 is still part of the PFAS group.
The choice depends on whether protection is mainly needed against water or also against oil and grease.
PFAS-free: 7681 and 8685 for water-repellent protection.
695 and 7656: for additional moderate oil and grease repellency.
C4 technology: 789 and 8689 for higher demands on water, oil, grease and stain repellency.
C6 technology: 689, 7689 and 687 for markets and applications where this technology remains permitted.
CCM will be happy to advise you on the right choice.
PFAS-free coatings deliver very good water repellency.
The main difference is oil and grease repellency, where C4 and C6 technologies often have an advantage. CCM also offers products with moderate oil and grease repellency.
Durability depends mainly on the textile, application method and wear – not solely on PFAS content.
No. PFAS is a collective term for many chemical substances with different properties.
EU Regulation 2024/2462 specifically restricts PFHxA and related substances, not all PFAS.
Certain PFAS-based technologies, such as C4, may therefore remain permitted. However, other legal restrictions apply to individual PFAS.
CCM offers both PFAS-free and fluorinated technologies to meet different requirements and applications.
No. EU Regulation 2024/2462 does not automatically apply in countries outside the European Union.
Other markets, such as the United States, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, have their own regulations. Certain C6 technologies may therefore still be permitted there.
CCM offers PFAS-free, C4 and C6 technologies for international markets. The rules of the destination market always apply. Products imported into the EU must meet the relevant EU requirements.
