PFAS in Coray's tap water: 1.4 ng/L, 2.8x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
2.8× above our health benchmark
0.5 ng/L is our benchmark, not an official limit. Same EFSA method as Sweden, Denmark and the Netherlands, but stricter. It's a yearly average, compared here with the latest check.
More about this result
The US also limits PFOA and PFOS to 4 ng/L each, per substance.
Substances below the detection limit count as 0, so the real total may be higher.
One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).

In Coray, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 1.4 ng/L (0.0014 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 3 June 2026. That's 2.8 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, but below Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 2.9 ng/L (0.0029 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). 2 checks since 17 April 2025: PFAS-4 up to 1.4 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Coray safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 3 June 2026, the tap water in Coray was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés. Concentration en chlorure de vinyle monomère conforme à la limite de qualité fixée à 0,5µg/L pour les eaux destinées à la consommation humaine en distribution.”
How high are PFAS levels in Coray's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 2.9 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 3 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Coray also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
Yes. Even against Europe's strictest legal limit, Sweden's 4 ng/L in force since 2026, the measured value of 1.4 ng/L stays below.
Are PFAS levels rising in Coray's tap water?
Too few quantified checks to say (1 since 17 April 2025). pfasnearme adds each new publication weekly; a trend needs at least three quantified values.
How hard is the water in Coray?
The water hardness in Coray is 16 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
All values come from official publications: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM). Retrieved on 21 September 2026.
