Biocidal products: simplified marketing authorisation

Biocidal products are strictly regulated at European and national scales. Therefore, the regulation's goal is to make sure that each and every biocidal product put on the market be truly efficient and that the risks related to its use be acceptable. For a biocidal product to be commercialised, it has to be granted a Marketing Authorisation (MA), beforehand. The latter can be of 5 different types. Today, we provide detailed information on the simplified MA.

The different types of biocidal MAs

The regulation n°528/2012 on biocidal products aims at improving the functioning of the market of biocidal products within the European Union, while guaranteeing a high level of protection of the human health and the environment. Thus, all biocidal products destined to be put on the market require an authorisation and the active substances they contain have to be approved beforehand. There are 3 big families of authorisations (transitory, provisional and long-term). EcoMundo details the different types of “long-term” marketing authorisations.
