PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit
0.0022 µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.0022 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 2 % of the limit. (27 April 2026)

Health limit (used in Sweden)
0.0013 µg/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · Limit: 0.004 µg/L below health limit

The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0.0013 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.

One of these four, PFOA, is classified as causing cancer in humans by the WHO's cancer research agency (IARC).

Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.
