[Soliloquy]

I just heard about this, too.



I'm wondering if it's just this brand? Lots of companies make them. And the lawsuit was settled. What I read is that no harm to people has been found, just that the chemicals were there and they are going to be removed. At least that's what I remember from the article I read.

Thinx denies those allegations, with a company spokesperson telling NPR in an email that PFAS have never been part of its product design and that it will continue to take measures to ensure the chemicals are not added to its products.

would hardly be the first time a corporation denied doing something it did, indeed, do.

Thinx will also take steps to ensure that PFAS are not intentionally added to its underwear at any stage of production and adjust some of its marketing language, including disclosing the use of antimicrobial treatments. It will also continue to have suppliers of raw materials sign a code of conduct and agreement attesting that PFAS are not being intentionally added to Thinx underwear.
