The KLINGER top-chem range is now produced entirely free of PFAS-based processing aids.
What does this mean? A cleaner and more responsible future.
PFAS: What are they and what negative impact do they have?
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are artificial chemical compounds used in several industries. Known for their persistence in the environment and their negative impact on health and ecosystems, there are over 4,000 different types.
Some are potentially harmful, linked to diseases such as cancer, thyroid disorders, and developmental problems. Highly persistent, they remain in the environment for decades and can accumulate in animals and the human body.
With these compounds out of production, KLINGER reinforces the commitment to sustainability, compliance with international standards, and the protection of health and the environment.
What does this mean in practice:
- Production is now 100% PFAS-free throughout the supply chain
- Same technical properties
- Updated certifications, ensuring greater regulatory compliance
- Adjusted printing and slight color changes for easy recognition: KLINGER top-chem 2000, 2005, and 2006 are slightly darker
- KLINGER top-chem 2003 now only available in blue
- Greater security against potential future restrictions or bans
What are the benefits?
KLINGER top-chem products remain identical, with unchanged performance and applications. Technical data sheets remain valid, and certificates have been updated and reflect the new sustainable production.
This change offers greater confidence, reduces legal risks, and contributes to a safer, more responsible future.
With remotion harmful PFAS from production, KLINGER takes a firm step toward protecting the environment and preparing the industry for tomorrow’s challenges. KLINGER top-chem combines sustainability, innovation, and high performance without compromising quality. 🌍♻️
