PFAS / AFFF Firefighting Foam Disposal
PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals widely used in industrial applications, including firefighting foams. These substances persist in the environment and pose significant health risks. Our PFAS foam disposal service ensures the safe and compliant removal and treatment of these hazardous materials, protecting both the environment and public health. We are also specialists in the removal and disposal of non-PFAS containing foams.
Safe Disposal of Legacy Firefighting Foams
As of July 4, 2025, the use of C8 foams will be prohibited in the UK. This regulation stems from growing concerns about the environmental and health risks associated with the C8 compounds. Hydrotec are perfectly positioned within the market to assist sites with the disposal of their legacy foams.
Our service guarantees full compliance with environmental regulations. We identify haulage partners with Waste Carriers Licenses and ensure that treatment and disposal facilities are permitted to accept your waste. Hazardous waste consignment notes are produced for all waste leaving site, meaning your site will remain compliant.
