Gore recognizes the growing interest in the important and complex topic of PFAS and the use of materials that fall under the broad definition of per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS) in GORE-TEX products. As a material science company, W. L. Gore & Associates carefully selects materials most appropriate for the unique specifications of each product and end use application. We do this with a commitment to product performance and environmental responsibility.
戈尔公司认识到，公众对于PFAS（全氟和多氟烷基物质）这一重要而复杂话题的关注度日益提升，同时也关注GORE-TEX产品中使用符合PFAS广泛定义材料的情况。作为一家材料科学公司，戈尔公司始终基于每个产品的独特技术规范和终端应用场景，审慎选择最合适的材料 。我们在过程中恪守品牌理念：立足环保，追求性能。

Within Gore’s Fabrics business, we are applying our deep knowledge and expertise in polymer science and end use applications to develop new and innovative textile materials that meet and exceed industry and end user requirements. In Autumn / Winter 2022, the GORE-TEX Brand launched our newest technology, the ePE membrane, made with expanded polyethylene and without intentionally added PFAS. By the end of 2025 the vast majority of our consumer fabrics products will be made with Gore's ePE membrane technology. We continue to scale this technology throughout our Fabrics portfolio.
在戈尔纺织品事业部，我们正依托在聚合物科学的专业知识和丰富的终端应用经验，持续开发超越行业标准，满足用户需求的创新纺织品面料。在2022年秋冬季，GORE-TEX品牌推出了我们最新的科技产品——ePE薄膜，该薄膜由膨体聚乙烯制成，并且没有有意添加PFAS。到2025年底，我们的大多数消费面料产品将采用戈尔ePE薄膜科技。我们将继续在我们的面料产品组合中推广这一新科技。

The term PFAS describes a wide range of substances with very different properties and uses. At Gore, we believe it is important to be specific about the particular substance or type of PFAS being discussed.
PFAS这一术语描述了大量性质和用途各不相同的物质。在戈尔，我们认为讨论时必须明确具体的PFAS类型和物质，这一点至关重要。

For example, Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), which is a member of the fluoropolymer class of per-and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) has been an important component of many of our Fabrics products throughout our history. PTFE is scientifically proven to be highly stable, non-toxic, not bioavailable and does not chemically degrade.
例如，聚四氟乙烯（PTFE）作为含氟聚合物类全氟和多氟烷基物质（PFAS）的一员，它一直是我们许多面料产品的核心成分。科学研究证明PTFE具有高度稳定性、无毒性、不会被生物体吸收利用，且不会在环境中化学降解。

Gore has been delivering high-performance, highly technical fabrics for more than 40 years. GORE-TEX products are safe for their intended use and we are proud of our legacy of responsible performance.
四十余年来，戈尔始终致力于研发高性能、高科技面料。GORE-TEX产品在其预期用途中安全可靠，我们以践行立足环保，追求性能的传统为荣。
