The Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, Regulation (EU) 528/2012) concerns the placing on the market and use of biocidal products, which are used to protect humans, animals, materials, or articles against harmful organisms such as pests or bacteria, through the action of the active substances contained in the biocidal product. This webinar aims to provide a general overview of the information requirements to be included in the dossier for the authorisation of a biocidal product.
First, a brief overview of the Regulation will be given. The presentation will then focus on the parts of the Regulation dealing with the information requirements and their waiving, namely Annexes III and IV. Subsequently, we will understand the importance of guidance documents on biocide legislation and activities like data gap analysis and screening of Substances of Concern (SoC) and Endocrine Disruptors (ED) among co-formulants in biocidal products. Finally, a case study will be presented.
