IOF Ban on fluorinated products for ski-waxing Declaration of Conformity:
Additional regulation and validity
This regulation and declaration of conformity is deemed an additional regulation per the Competitions Rules for IOF Ski Orienteering Events §2.5. It is valid for all IOF events in the 2021/2022 Ski Orienteering season i.e., from 1 November 2021 to 31 October 2022.
The two current regulations (EC) No. 1907/2006 (“REACH”) and (EU) 2019/1021 (“POP regulation”) state that it is forbidden to produce, sell and use products (ski-waxes) containing PFOA (also termed C8 products). This applies to all such products, including those produced prior to 4 July 2020. The IOF declares that the use of such products is forbidden at IOF events, including World Ranking Events. For purpose of clarification this means that all PFOA/C8 products are banned while C6 products are still allowed for the season 2021/2022.
