Several states have implemented or advanced requirements focused on intentionally added PFAS, including product restrictions and reporting obligations that will matter for downstream users and suppliers serving building materials, industrial products and consumer goods.

In Colorado, the state’s PFAS laws page summarizes restrictions created by Senate Bill 24-081, which bans the sale and distribution of certain consumer products containing intentionally added PFAS as phased requirements take effect.

In Maine, the state statute governing products containing PFAS lists additional product categories that become restricted effective Jan. 1, 2026, including certain cleaning products, cookware products, cosmetic products, dental floss, and juvenile products when they contain intentionally added PFAS.

In Minnesota, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency states it extended the initial PFAS reporting due date by six months to July 1, 2026, as part of the state’s PFAS in products implementation work tied to Amara’s Law. 

Update, Sept. 14, 2026: The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency extended the state's initial PFAS product-reporting deadline to Sept. 15, 2026. Manufacturers granted an extension have until Dec. 14. See the MPCA's current reporting requirements for details.


These state actions align with PCI’s coverage of PFAS developments affecting materials selection and compliance.
