This week’s Chemical Watch News & Insight podcast from Enhesa dives into the European Commission's contentious plan to distinguish between consumer and industrial uses of PFAS, as well as the EU's plans to identify substances that are "critical" to the trade bloc's industrial competitiveness.

Senior correspondent for Europe Clelia Oziel joins the podcast to discuss the Commission's plan to define consumer uses of PFAS and how that could shape the scope of the EU's upcoming PFAS restriction proposal.

We also talk with our managing editor for Europe Leigh Stringer about the EU's Critical Chemicals Alliance and how its work to identify substances that are essential to Europe's most strategic sectors could affect the EU's broader chemicals management regime.

Tune in to catch the full episode! And then come back to read all the latest developments in chemicals policy from Enhesa’s Chemical Watch News & Insight.
