For safe & sustainable
PFAS alternatives

The ZeroF project funded by the EU and SERI, will develop safe and sustainable coating alternatives to replace PFAS compounds in food packaging and upholstery textile value chains.

End the cycle of forever chemicals with ZeroF's safe and sustainable coatings!

ZeroF is a Horizon Europe project, co-funded by the European Union and the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation, which sets its focus on:

Tackling “forever chemicals”

ZeroF will develop safe and sustainable coating alternatives to replace PFAS compounds in food packaging and upholstery textile value chains.

Bringing experts together

Coordinated by VTT, Finland’s leading research centre, 12 research and industry partners from 9 countries will innovate during a 36-month project period as of 2023.

Developing a regulatory roadmap

A Safe and Sustainable by Design framework will be used to guide material design, optimize coating formulations, assess safety and performance and evaluate economic and environmental impact.
