Billabong Review, Is Billabong Non-Toxic?
Billabong averages 26 out of 100 on PFAS Authority's PFAS and toxin screen across the 8 Billabong products graded as of October 2026, and none of them reach its 70 point pass mark.
Billabong grades Poor on our four-band scale. On disclosure, the brand says nothing publicly about PFAS. See what every brand has published about PFAS for how that compares.
PFAS Authority is a scoring system, not a laboratory. We do not test products ourselves. Grades are model-based, built from published ingredients, materials, certifications, brand disclosures and third-party lab results where they exist. See the rubric.
