PFAS score
Toko · Ski Wax
250g Universal Ski Wax
Skip until formulation is transparent, ski wax glide coatings historically use PFAS.
Toko does not publicly disclose the full formulation of this universal ski wax or confirm absence of PFAS-based glide enhancers. Ski wax products, especially performance grades, have historically contained fluorinated compounds for speed.

Brand disclosure
Brand is silent on PFAS
Lab data
No public lab test
Why this grade
Waterproof / stain-resistant treatment
water-repellent coating treatments have historically used PFAS.
Category baseline
other is a category where PFAS exposure is more common.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement about PFAS in this product.
What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% 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.
Safer alternatives in Ski Wax
Start
Star Nf Non-Fluoro Ski Glide Wax 60 G
hydrocarbon ski wax (non-fluorinated)
Lower concern, non-fluoro wax avoids PFAS-laden fluorinated alternatives, but verify formulation transparency.
⚠Risky category by default
Start
Kick Wax Synthetic
Synthetic hydrocarbon wax blend
Lower concern. Synthetic ski wax lacks typical PFAS applications, but composition opacity warrants caution.
⚠Risky category by default
Start
Basewax
Wax-based product (beeswax, plant waxes, or mineral wax blend)
Lower-concern choice; wax-based products typically don't require PFAS, but verify ingredient list.
⚠Risky category by default
