New Mexico’s PFAS Reporting and Labeling Guidance

New Mexico has released new guidance and frequently asked questions (FAQs) regarding the reporting and labeling requirements for products that intentionally contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). This initiative aims to enhance transparency and consumer awareness about the presence of PFAS in various products.

The guidance outlines the obligations for manufacturers and retailers concerning the disclosure of PFAS content, which is critical given the growing concerns over the environmental and health impacts associated with these substances. Companies are encouraged to familiarize themselves with these requirements to ensure compliance and to provide clear information to consumers.

The FAQs address common queries related to the scope of the regulations, including which products are affected, the specific labeling language required, and the reporting process for compliance. This effort is part of New Mexico’s broader strategy to mitigate the risks posed by PFAS and to promote public health and safety.
