Connecticut PFAS product requirements

Since January 1, 2026, sellers of PFAS-containing firefighter turnout gear must give written notice to the purchaser.

Selling these categories with intentionally added PFAS in Connecticut requires prior notification to CT DEEP — a published form with an $800 registration fee — in addition to product labeling.

Cadence: Prior notification before offering for sale: DEEP's 'PFAS Reporting Form for Manufacturers' emailed to DEEP.CentralPermits@ct.gov (cc DEEP.PFASInProduct@ct.gov) or mailed to the Central Permit Processing Unit, with an $800 registration fee.

Notification content: product description + category, CAS numbers or molecular formula/weight, amount of each PFAS subgroup, PFAS range by % weight (total fluorine if no analytical method exists), reason PFAS is used, and manufacturer contact info.

Since January 1, 2026, outdoor apparel for severe wet conditions with intentionally added PFAS may only be sold in Connecticut with a 'Made with PFAS chemicals' disclosure.

Disclosure text: 'Made with PFAS chemicals' — on the product and any online listing.

Since July 1, 2026, these categories may only be sold in Connecticut with intentionally added PFAS if the manufacturer labels the product.

From January 1, 2028, Connecticut bans the sale of these categories with intentionally added PFAS outright.
