Proof in the Product: Validating PFAS-Free Claims
PFAS—often called “forever chemicals”—are under increasing scrutiny for their health and environmental impacts. But how can manufacturers prove their products are truly PFAS-Free? In this episode of NSF Food for Thought, Jess Baker, Senior Scientist at ROCOL, joins NSF’s Sam Cole to discuss ROCOL’s journey as the very first company to achieve NSF’s PFAS-Free certification. Together, they explore what drove ROCOL to pursue certification, how it aligns with customer and regulatory expectations, and what this milestone means for the wider food industry.
