PFOA or PFOS in Alconox Cleaners

Question:
Is there any PFOA or PFOS in any Alconox cleaner?

Answer:
PFOA and PFOS are perfluoro-octanoic acid and perfluoro-octane sulfonate. None of the Alconox, Inc brand cleaners contains PFOA or PFOS ingredients. We have no data on any trace content of these materials in Alconox cleaners, although on the assumption that these would come from contact with treated fabrics, we certainly do not use any treated fabrics in our manufacturing process and we do not think any such treated fabrics would be found in our raw material supplier processes. Therefore we would not expect any significant trace content of PFOA or PFOS in any Alconox cleaner.
