Biocides

About biocides

Some biocidal products are still in a ‘transition period’. This means that their active ingredient(s) are included in the European review program, but a final decision has not yet been taken. As such these products are authorized according to national law until there is a decision taken at European level on its active ingredient(s). BReTox has over 20 years experience with applications to the Dutch competent authority (Ctgb) and knows the details of the so-called ‘overgangsrecht’ for biocides.

When the active ingredient of a biocidal product has reached a final decision at European level and is included in the so-called ‘union list – register’ all biocidal products containing this ingredient have to follow the BPR procedure.  For a number of product types you can follow the union application procedure and apply for union approval in the entire EU. For other product types (or if you intend to market your product only in a few member states), you need to follow the national 528/2012 procedure, followed by mutual recognition application in case you intend to include additional member states. BReTox can advise you on the choice of application procedure and assist with the full application according to the EU procedures. This includes submission through R4BP register and preparation IUCLID dossier, SPC document and compiling the PAR summary document including the required risk assessments.

Additionally, all other formulants present in the biocidal product can be checked for being a substance of concern and a screening for endocrine disrupting properties can be done by BReTox.

Plant Protection Products

Plant Protection Products

Plant protection products containing active substances that are included on the Annex I of Regulation 1107/2009 (used to be Directive 91/414), still need an application in each member state. It is possible to apply for ‘zonal’ applications: North, Center and South have been divided by Regulation 1107 and it is possible to apply in only one member state followed by mutual recognitions at a later time. BReTox can advise you on the procedures. The product dossier needs to be prepared in dRR format. BReTox can assist you with the preparation of such a product dossier.

Plant protection products containing active substance(s) that are still under review and not yet included on the list, still follow national application procedures. BReTox has ample experience with applications in the Netherlands to the Ctgb.

An active substance that is on the Annex I list needs a renewal after 10 years. BReTox has experience with the preparation of these Annex I renewal (AIR) dossier.

BReTox can perform the operator/worker/bystander/resident exposure and risk assessment, as well as the dietary exposure and risk assessment, according to the latest EFSA models.
