In recent news, Dutch multinational electronics and semiconductor manufacturer STMicroelectronics (ST) has announced it is now PFOA-free, having completely phased out the substance in 2022. In its sustainability report released last month, the company said it had removed perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and PFOA-related substances “without any supply chain disruption, while improving process quality and equipment efficiency, and maintaining product performance”.
