PFAS in Glénat's tap water: under 4 ng/L, none of the four main PFAS detected
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
None of the 4 most harmful PFAS detected
The lab sees nothing below 4 ng/L, 8 times our benchmark of 0.5 ng/L. Water above our benchmark would pass this check unnoticed.
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.
The lab detects each of the four substances from 1 ng/L upward. None reached that limit, so their total is below 4 ng/L rather than zero.

In Glénat, none of the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) was detected at the latest PFAS check on 4 November 2025. The total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the detection limits and 8 times our 0.5 ng/L benchmark. Sum of 20 PFAS: 1.5 ng/L (0.0015 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L).

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Glénat safe to drink?
At the latest check, the water was over at least one limit. “Résultats d'analyses conformes à la norme. Toutefois, présence de spores de bactéries anaérobies sulfito-réductrices : eau de qualité sanitaire non satisfaisante. Surveiller le taux de nitrates.”
How high are PFAS levels in Glénat's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 1.5 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 2 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Glénat also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
As far as this check can tell, yes. None of the four compounds was quantified, so their total is below 4 ng/L, the sum of the laboratory's detection limits, and under Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L in force since 2026.
How hard is the water in Glénat?
The water hardness in Glénat is 1.6 °f (soft). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
Where does this data come from?
