PFAS in drinking water

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

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 0.06 µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 60 % of the limit. (23 July 2025)

This source does not list each PFAS substance separately, so we cannot compare this water with the health limit.

For context: the total of all 20 PFAS (0.06 µg/L) is already above 0.020 µg/L, the limit Germany will enforce from 2028.

8 PFAS (see each substance)
Acide perfluoropentanoïque (PFPEA) 0.032 µg/L
Acide perfluorohexanoïque (PFHXA) 0.016 µg/L
Acide perfluoroheptanoïque (PFHPA) 0.011 µg/L
Acide perfluoroheptane sulfonique (PFHpS) <0,004 µg/L
Acide perfluorododécanoique (PFDoDA) <0,002 µg/L
Acide perfluoro undecane sulfonique (PFUnDS) <0,004 µg/L
Acide perfluoro tridecanoique (PFTrDA) <0,002 µg/L
Acide perfluorobutanoïque (PFBA) <0,020 µg/L
