Restoration Hardware Perennials fabric contains PFAs

I purchased the Restoration Hardware perennials fabric back in 2022 for a custom couch.

Recently I learned about the new laws in California regarding a ban on PFAs.

I went back to Restoration Hardware who told me that my batch of Perennails fabrics contains PFAs.

The Perennials website lists as follow:

chemical compliance Statements All Perennials fibers and fabrics are independently lab tested and are certified so they comply with or exceed industry standards including resistance to soil, water, UV radiation, tearing and abrasion. Inherently resistant to rot, mold, fungal decay and even small insects, Perennials solution-dyed acrylic fibers are able to maintain their beauty, even in the harshest of environments. Because Perennials fibers are solution-dyed, the color permeates to the core, enabling Perennials to confidently offer a three year warranty against fading. UL GREENGUARD GOLD Perennials products are GREENGUARD Gold Standard certified. OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 – Perennials fabrics meet the human-ecological requirements of the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX. REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization & Restrictions of Chemicals) – Perennials solution-dyed acrylic meets all REACH regulations, and is certified that none of the substances listed in any published candidate list, particularly N, N Dimethylformamide, is present in the fiber in a concentration higher than 0.1% by weight. CFSI (Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative) – Perennials certifies that no conflict minerals (gold, tungsten, tin and tantalum) are knowingly used in the production of all fibers, yarns, fabrics or finishes. Conflict minerals are those mined in areas or countries with known conditions of armed conflict and/or human rights abuses. PFOA / PFOS free – Perennials certifies that all fabrics and finishes are free of perfluorooctanoic and perfluorooctanesulfonic acids. Performance Finish – is a non-hazardous soil-resistant finish. California Technical Bulletin 117-2013 – all Perennials 100% solution-dyed acrylic upholstery fabrics pass the standard for this requirement, with NO fire-retardant chemicals added to any part of the manufacturing process.

Initially when researching this fabric I was given all the specs and they contained no PFAs (from the perennials website).

Restoration Hardware told me that they purchased the fabric then added the PFAs later.

Now in 2025, they make it differently.

This doesn’t make sense and the company cannot give me any definite answers.

I have a lot of very frustrated friends who are very upset now that they purchased this fabric from Restorations Hardware, as we were all initially told this fabric passed so many standards that we were looking for in our homes.

Looking for help.
