Does Parchment Paper by Glad grease-resistant parchment paper have PFAS?
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.
We graded 8 Parchment Paper by Glad grease-resistant parchment paper products, averaging Bad (24/100). None of them grade Good or better.
Graded and flagged Poor and Bad, we’d swap these
