PFAS score
Reynolds · Parchment Paper
Reynolds Kitchens Parchment Paper
Likely lower concern, but Reynolds discloses nothing, choose if you trust silicone coatings.
Reynolds Parchment Paper uses a silicone-based (not Teflon-family coating) coating for heat resistance, which does not inherently require PFAS. However, Reynolds makes no public statement about PFAS avoidance, and independent lab data is sparse.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 42% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
