PFASDisclose
State-by-state PFAS product compliance navigator for manufacturers, importers, and distributors. Primary government source citations. No paraphrasing.
PFAS regulation had been building for years. In 2025 and 2026 the pace accelerated sharply. Six states now have active product laws with real deadlines and real penalties. The federal EPA confirmed the TSCA Section 8(a)(7) reporting deadline at October 26, 2026. Minnesota confirmed its PRISM annual reporting deadline at September 15, 2026.
Most of the manufacturers, importers, and distributors subject to these obligations are behind. Not because they don't want to comply — because the compliance information is scattered across state agency sites with no consolidated navigator and no plain-English triage tool. PFASDisclose is that navigator.
Critical 2026 deadlines
| Deadline | Who | What |
|---|---|---|

| Apr 13, 2027 | Small manufacturers qualifying as article importers | Extended EPA TSCA deadline |

What PFAS are
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — "forever chemicals" — are a large group of synthetic chemicals characterized by carbon-fluorine bonds that make them exceptionally resistant to degradation. Found in thousands of consumer and industrial products since the 1940s: nonstick cookware, food packaging, stain-resistant textiles, firefighting foam. Growing evidence linking exposure to cancer, thyroid disruption, and immune suppression has triggered the current wave of state and federal regulation.
The regulatory response isn't theoretical anymore. It has dates, deadlines, and penalties. PFASDisclose tracks them so manufacturers don't have to piece the picture together from twelve different agency websites.
The signal was the gap between the regulatory pace and the compliance awareness pace. PFAS regulation was accelerating. The compliance information market hadn't caught up. That gap is what PFASDisclose fills.

PFASDisclose is a live application of the Early Signal Arbitrage framework. Regulatory information gaps in fast-moving spaces are a repeatable signal type — the same pattern that produced DisclosAI for AI disclosure law, and InteractSafe for drug interaction information ahead of the Schedule 3 reclassification. The reference built before the mainstream compliance industry responds is the one that gets cited.
