Combating PFAS Pollution – Municipal Policy Guidance

This municipal policy guidance provides a practical framework for tackling PFAS pollution. The first section sets out a broader package of strategic measures that municipalities can use across areas such as oversight, planning, water management and internal governance. The second section focuses specifically on public procurement as a tool for reducing PFAS use and encouraging the market towards safer alternatives. The guide builds on KIMO Sweden’s wider PFAS work and encourages municipalities to develop cross-functional cooperation, train procurement staff and consider joint purchasing approaches.
