SUMMARY:PFAS Restriction workshop
DESCRIPTION:Event motivation\n The phaseout of per- and polyfluorinated materials will affect various industries\, causing disruptions in supply chains and requires substantial adaptations in manufacturing processes. To navigate these challenges\, proactive strategies are necessary to identify viable alternative materials and align operations with upcoming regulatory requirements. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of these restrictions and their implications is crucial for staying compliant and maintaining competitiveness in an increasingly dynamic regulatory environment. \nThis workshop provides guidance for industry professionals to navigate these challenges effectively. During this half-day event\, attendees will gain insights into: \n\nThe current Legislative Landscape: Understand the latest developments in EU regulatory processes.\nStrategies for compliance: Learn best practices for supply chain and production management.\nMaterial Phase-Out and Replacement: Effective strategies for phasing out restricted materials and identifying alternatives.\nIndustry-Specific Solutions: Gain insights into how the medtech sector and other industries are addressing these challenges through innovative practices and collaborative approaches.\nAdvanced Analytical Techniques: State-of-the-art methods for analyzing non-aqueous PFAS samples.\nRegulatory Perspectives from the US: Federal and local regulations shaping PFAS restriction in the US.\n\n\nOrganizational information\n\n															\n								\n												Date & Time \nWednesday\, 26.03.2025 \n12.30 – 19.00 Uhr \n															\n								\n												Location \nEmpa \nLerchenfeldstrasse 5 \n9014 St.Gallen \n															\n								\n												Program \nProgram: \n12.30 – 13.00Welcome13.00 – 13.10 Introduction: Jens Ulmer\, OST; Arne Jaksch\, Jaksch Life Science consulting13.15 – 13.40 Origin of PFAS restrictions and its implication to industry: tba13.45 – 14.10 Actual status of the legal process.
