Au cours des dernières années, les législateurs ont publié de nouvelles réglementations environnementales afin de cibler des problèmes spécifiques. Ces lois varient d’une juridiction à l’autre, en fonction des préoccupations du public et de l’impact sur l’environnement. Diverses substances chimiques dangereuses constituent un risque d’exposition pour les consommateurs de produits. Les substances chimiques PFAS sont l’une d’entre elles.
Depuis 1976, l’Agence américaine de protection de l’environnement (EPA) met en œuvre une réglementation connue sous le nom de TSCA, qui signifie Toxic Substances Control Act (loi sur le contrôle des substances toxiques). L’objectif de la TSCA est de contrôler les produits chimiques nouveaux ou existants sur le marché américain et de protéger ainsi les Américains et l’environnement.
Comme vous pouvez l’imaginer, la TSCA a été modifiée à plusieurs reprises au fil des ans, avec l’ajout de nouvelles substances soumises à des restrictions. En outre, la loi Lautenberg sur la sécurité chimique pour le 21e siècle est une réforme qui a donné naissance à la TSCA-PBT, avec la restriction de certaines substances persistantes, bioaccumulables et toxiques.
Les fabricants, y compris les importateurs d’articles et les petits fabricants, doivent déclarer la teneur en PFAS.
Comme mentionné ci-dessus, l’amendement 86 FR 33926 du 28 juin 2021 exige des fabricants qu’ils déposent des rapports électroniques contenant des données sur les PFAS ajoutés intentionnellement. Les obligations de déclaration et d’enregistrement des PFAS par produit/famille sont les suivantes :
La règle proposée ne prévoit aucune exception pour les articles. Contactez Enviropass pour obtenir de l’aide pour vos déclarations de PFAS.
Il s’agit d’une exigence obligatoire de collecte de données, applicable à partir du 29 janvier 2025, conformément à l’article 71 de la LCPE. En bref, les producteurs d’articles importés et fabriqués au Canada doivent déclarer la teneur en PFAS de l’une des 312 substances énumérées si :
Par exemple, la première obligation de déclaration avant la fin du mois de janvier 2025 couvre les informations sur les PFAS en 2023.
Enfin, des détails supplémentaires peuvent s’appliquer, par exemple si les PFAS sont en contact direct avec la peau de l’utilisateur.
Note : * le seuil de 10g selon l’annexe 1, partie 1, inclut les PFAS principalement présents dans les liquides (lubrifiants) et les sels.

La TSCA n’est pas la seule réglementation visant les PFAS. En voici d’autres :
Les autorités publiques ont généralement tendance à
Ce dernier principe s’applique à la loi américaine sur le contrôle des substances toxiques (TSCA) qui réglemente les substances per- et polyfluoroalkyles (PFAS).
Les substances PFAS sont des substances chimiques ou des mélanges qui ont la structure suivante :
R-(CF2)-C(F)(R’)R ».
Les groupements CF2 et CF sont des carbones saturés. Aucun des groupes R (R, R’ ou R ») n’est un atome d’hydrogène.
Ces substances chimiques artificielles ont une chaîne principale d’atomes de carbone, entourée d’atomes de fluor, tandis que les extrémités de ces structures peuvent être différentes.
En raison de leurs structures moléculaires, les PFAS :
Les PFAS constituent un vaste groupe de produits chimiques. En voici quelques-uns :
L’acide perfluorooctanoïque (PFOA) et l’acide perfluorooctane sulfonique (PFOS) sont les PFAS les plus connus. Ils ont été produits massivement depuis leur découverte dans les années 1930 et 1940. Le GenX a été utilisé pour remplacer le PFOA.
Le PTFE, commercialisé sous la marque Teflon, est un nom familier.
Ces substances sont utilisées dans différents produits et industries. Par exemple, les applications suivantes peuvent nécessiter des produits chimiques à base de PFAS :
En raison des rejets humains provenant de la production, des sous-produits et des déchets de produits, les PFAS contaminent les sources d’eau potable. Le rejet des PFAS dans l’environnement suscite des inquiétudes en matière de santé publique, car certains de ces PFAS sont :
Elles sont appelées substances PBT. Le PFOA et le PFOS en font partie. Elles ont tendance à s’accumuler dans l’organisme après exposition et y restent longtemps.
En fin de compte, les PFAS peuvent affecter :
Depuis 2020, le TSCA a établi des règles précises pour restreindre les PFAS. En juillet 2020, l’EPA a émis la règle SNUR (Significant New Use Rule) exigeant la notification et l’examen des LC-PFCA dans les produits. Les substances PFOA susmentionnées font partie de la famille des LC-PFCA, qui constituent un sous-groupe d’acides carboxyliques perfluorés à longue chaîne.
Cette exigence s’applique aux substances chimiques LC-PFCA utilisées dans le revêtement de surface des articles importés, y compris :
