PFAS in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray's tap water: 17.1 ng/L, 34.2x our 0.5 ng/L benchmark
Last PFAS check: · Source: Hub'eau
PFAS in drinking water
34.2× 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.
Sample taken in Fossé, on the same distribution network as Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray (FOSSE). The health authority samples one tap per network; a network carries the same treated water everywhere.
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 Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 17.1 ng/L (0.0171 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 6 May 2025. That's 34.2 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 17 ng/L (0.017 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Fossé, on the same network. 3 checks since 1 August 2024: sum of 20 PFAS up to 17 ng/L, sometimes below the detection limit.

Frequently asked questions
Is tap water in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray safe to drink?
Yes. At the check on 1 December 2025, the tap water in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray was within every limit tested. “Eau d'alimentation conforme aux exigences de qualité en vigueur pour l'ensemble des paramètres mesurés.”
How high are PFAS levels in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray's drinking water?
The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 17 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 17 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)
Does the water in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray also meet the strictest limits in Europe?
No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 17.1 ng/L. That is 4.3 times Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L, in force since 2026. Germany will set a similar one in 2028. The water still passes the current EU legal limit (100 ng/L for the total of 20 PFAS).
Are PFAS levels rising in Saint-Sulpice-de-Pommeray's tap water?
Calculated PFAS-4 values are listed in the table. The chart uses laboratory-published sum-of-20 results; there are too few laboratory-published PFAS-4 sums for the existing trend calculation.
