New Mexico PFAS Compliance Guide
Is my product banned in New Mexico for PFAS?
Update (Sept 16, 2026): A federal court (D.N.M.) granted a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of New Mexico's PFAS labeling regulation while litigation proceeds. The order does not affect the manufacturer reporting requirement (due Jan 1, 2027) or the phased sales prohibitions (2027/2028). Labeling is therefore currently unenforced — treat the label obligation as uncertain pending appeal.
New Mexico's PFAS Protection Act phases in product bans. Here is the full list so you can check your category.
Banned from 2027 (manufactured after Jan 1, 2027)
- cookware
- food packaging and containers
- dental floss and dental products
- juvenile products (car seats, toys, cribs, pajamas)
- firefighting foam
Banned from 2028
- carpets and rugs
- cleaning products
- cosmetics
- fabric treatments
- feminine hygiene products
- textiles and textile furnishings
- ski wax
- upholstered furniture
- additional food packaging
Even if your product is not on a ban list yet, you can still be subject to reporting (by Jan 1, 2027) and labeling if it contains intentionally added PFAS. The ban list and the report/label obligation are separate.
