PFAS RELATED CORPORATE NEWS FROM SEC FILINGS AND EARNINGS CALLS DURING THE LAST WEEK
Lakeland Industries reports $194,000 in PFAS litigation expenses during the first half of 2024.
Learn CW Investment Corp warns that the market and/or regulatory agencies inside and outside the U.S. may elect to curtail the use of polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), including hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and hydrochlorofluoroolefins (HCFOs), due to their persistence in the environment, their global warming potential, or their ozone depletion potential. While Accelsius is working to ensure industry best practices use of these commonly available refrigerants as working fluids in Accelsius’ cooling products, unforeseen regulatory changes that limit availability or manufacturing capacity or increase material prices would adversely affect Accelsius business.
