Case Background
Aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF) has been widely used since the 1970s to fight flammable liquid fires, particularly at military bases, airports, and firefighter training facilities. This foam contains per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), sometimes called 'forever chemicals' because they don't break down naturally in the environment or human body. Scientific research has linked PFAS exposure to various types of cancer and other health conditions. Lawsuits allege that manufacturers of AFFF, including 3M and DuPont, knew about the potential health risks but failed to warn users or develop safer alternatives. Those at highest risk include firefighters, military personnel (especially those on naval ships or air bases), and communities near facilities where AFFF was regularly used.
