TE Connectivity issues PFAS customer letter (Jan 2025) describing PFAS supply-chain inquiry and compliance drivers referenced by TE

TE Connectivity published a customer letter dated January 2025 outlining its approach to PFAS within TE’s product environmental compliance program, which is part of TE’s broader banned/restricted substances expectations. The letter states TE is going beyond currently regulated PFAS and is querying its supply base for PFAS (CAS-number-based) presence across sellable products, and it highlights regulatory/compliance drivers (e.g., TSCA PFAS reporting, EU REACH universal PFAS restriction proposal, and evolving state PFAS product restrictions) as context for TE’s data collection and declarations. This is a company compliance communication (not a law), but it can require supplier responses, updated material declarations, and PFAS presence assessments to meet TE customer/supplier compliance expectations.
