PFAS chemicals (short for Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic compounds used on many everyday items and products that are hazardous to humans. These chemicals are used for a variety of purposes, but most commonly for their grease, water, and/or stain-resistant properties. Items treated with PFAS chemicals can range from kitchen utensils and outdoor furniture to carpets, clothing, and even cookware. Though these chemicals are convenient and have helped bring about a new age of material functionality, their hazardous makeup raises concerns for many human health and environmental issues.
If a product is labelled "stain-resistant" or "water-proof" it most likely contains PFAS Chemicals. When buying these products, first look for labelling that says PFAS-FREE. When in doubt, contact the manufacturer and ask them if their products contain PFAS or PFC Forever Chemicals. Revolution Fabrics recognized the harmful effects of these chemicals and eliminated using them in our manufacturing process over 20 years ago.
