EU Commission notes Stockholm Convention COPs (2025) listed chlorpyrifos, MCCPs and long-chain PFCAs as POPs

The European Commission’s international agreements page states that Parties, at the 2025 Basel/Rotterdam/Stockholm COPs, added three hazardous chemicals to the Stockholm Convention (chlorpyrifos; medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (MCCPs); long-chain perfluorocarboxylic acids (LC‑PFCAs), their salts and related compounds). For compliance teams, this is a confirmation of new global POP listings that can trigger downstream national/regional implementing measures and updates to restricted substance lists, supply-chain declarations, and product stewardship programs in Parties to the Convention.
