This New Jersey bill prohibits the sale, manufacture, and distribution of apparel containing intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) starting two years after the law takes effect. The legislation defines 'apparel' broadly to include clothing, footwear, and outdoor gear, while explicitly excluding personal protective equipment and military uniforms. Violations of the ban will be treated as offenses under existing consumer protection laws, with penalties applied to sellers and manufacturers who distribute non-compliant products.
