PFAS in drinking water

12× above our health benchmark

Amount found in the water 6 ng/L 0.006 µg/L · the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4)
Our health benchmark 0.5 ng/L

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 Annet-sur-Marne, on the same distribution network as Thorigny-sur-Marne (LAGNY - SMAEP LAGNY A). 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 Thorigny-sur-Marne, the 4 most closely watched PFAS (PFAS-4) add up to 6 ng/L (0.006 µg/L) at the latest PFAS check on 8 July 2026. That's 12 times our 0.5 ng/L health benchmark, and above Sweden's legal limit of 4 ng/L. Sum of 20 PFAS: 25 ng/L (0.025 µg/L), below the EU legal limit (100 ng/L). Sampled in Annet-sur-Marne, on the same network. 13 checks since 14 January 2026: PFAS-4 from 1 ng/L to 6 ng/L, averaging 2.83 ng/L over 12 months. Rising on the main network.

PFAS over time in Thorigny-sur-Marne

25 PFAS checks since 2 April 2025, from the published measurements. Samples from 3 communes on the same network: it's the same water, so each one applies to Thorigny-sur-Marne. Samples come from 6 distribution networks. The trend refers to the network “LAGNY - SMAEP LAGNY A”.

“Calculated”: PFAS-4 worked out from the four substances in the same sample. The chart, averages and trends use lab-published sums only.

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Thorigny-sur-Marne safe to drink?

At the latest check, the water was over at least one limit. “Eau d'alimentation non-conforme aux limites de qualité pour les paramètres chlorates et bromates. Un recontrôle est en cours. Eau d'alimentation ne satisfaisant pas aux références de qualité pour le paramètre température. Une température excessive peut favoriser un développement microbiologique de certains germes et bactéries nuisibles pour la santé humaine, comme les légionelles par exemple. Elle favorise aussi la dissolution de certains métaux dans l'eau, contenu dans les canalisations, provoquant une coloration de l'eau. Il est recommandé de procéder à des purges régulières sur le réseau intérieur.”

How high are PFAS levels in Thorigny-sur-Marne's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at 25 ng/L. The EU limit is 100 ng/L, so this water is at 25 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Thorigny-sur-Marne also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

No. The four most harmful PFAS add up to 6 ng/L. That is 1.5 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 Thorigny-sur-Marne's tap water?

Yes. On the main network, the PFAS-4 sum rose from 2 ng/L (14 January 2026) to 5 ng/L (8 July 2026) across 12 quantified checks. pfasnearme's benchmark is 0.5 ng/L as an annual mean. These history statistics use laboratory-published sums only.

How hard is the water in Thorigny-sur-Marne?

The water hardness in Thorigny-sur-Marne is 29.9 °f (medium). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.
