Regulatory Drivers
The use of Biocides in the EU is controlled by the Biocidal Products Regulation 528/2012 (BPR), which places obligations on Manufacturers, Suppliers and Users of such products across a range of end uses, such as disinfection and pest control. The inclusion of treated articles in the scope of the EU BPR, adds new and complex obligations. All Biocidal Products must be authorised before they are placed on the EU Market. All Active Substances contained within Biocidal products must be Approved before use.
