PFAS regulation has become a test case for how Europe balances environmental ambition, industrial competitiveness and regulatory certainty.

On 26 June 2026, EU Focus Group Partner Pavel Glukhov will participate in the second PFAS webinar organised by the Société des Experts Chimistes de France (SECF) alongside Claudio Mereu, Partner at Bird & Bird and co-founder of the Helix Team with EU Focus Group.

The webinar will address the evolving European regulatory framework, the proposed PFAS restriction under REACH, its practical implications for industry and the broader policy choices facing Europe.

The discussion reflects the increasingly interconnected nature of scientific evidence, legal interpretation, public affairs and political decision-making in EU chemicals policy.

Through the Helix Team, EU Focus Group and Bird & Bird combine regulatory strategy, public affairs and legal expertise to help stakeholders anticipate these developments.
