SB 1138 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: banning products containing intentionally added PFAS and providing a penalty. (FE)

This bill would ban the sale of products containing intentionally added PFAS chemicals starting in 2032, covering items like food packaging, cookware, cosmetics, and textiles used in homes. It requires manufacturers to submit detailed information about PFAS use in their products and allows the state to add more product categories to the ban through future rules. A complete ban on all intentionally added PFAS would take effect in 2038, except for uses deemed necessary for public safety or the environment. The law includes exemptions for medical devices, firefighting foam, and products governed by federal law, with a penalty of $100 per violating product per day for noncompliance.
