Sampling, industrial case studies
and risk assessment

WP4 will generate comparable evidence on targeted and hidden PFAS across products, industrial processes and countries.

PROJECT MONTHS

M10–M42

Sample across five countries

Collect consumer products, industrial materials and wastewater, including food packaging, cosmetics and children’s products.

Study real production settings

Conduct PFAS audits at VenusRoses LabSolutions and APIVITA, including raw materials, process intermediates, finished products and wastewater.

Analyse targeted and hidden PFAS

Apply harmonised WP3 methods to identify known compounds and precursor-derived PFAS in the collected samples.

Assess risk and monitoring gaps

Compare results with relevant thresholds and evaluate how hidden PFAS may change estimates based on targeted monitoring alone.
