2 DHI Environment and Toxicology (EAT) International consulting and research organisation within water, environment and health Support of industry and authorities in human and environmental risk assessments Chemicals and consumer products Biocides and pesticides Food, feed, cosmetics IT and chemical management Pharmaceuticals and medical devices Water safety and contaminants Marine waste and ballast water #2

3 Michael Fink Biologist, from 2008 at DHI-EAT Business Development Manager, biocides Danish/German Risk assessment of biocidal actives and products Strategic advice to industry Course leader: Authorisation of biocidal products #3

4 Hands on experience from numerous disinfectant projects Product authorisations PT 1-5 Union authorisation PT 1-5 Same product authorisations Mutual recognition authorisations Art. 95 registrations projects PT 1-5 In-situ generated biocides Simplified procedure disinfectants, wipes Notification of new active substances PT 1-5 Research projects, disinfectant spray products Tailor made IUCLID courses, authorisation courses #4

6 01. The BPR and disinfectants #6

7 1. The BPR and disinfectants Main purpose of BPR Biocidal products are safe for humans, animals and the environment Biocidal products are sufficiently effective Harmonisation of rules concerning Making available of biocidal products on the market Use of biocidal products Evaluation of biocidal products #7

8 1. The BPR and some of its associated implementing acts Review Programme ECHA fee regulation BPR Same products regulation Annex I actives Changes regulation #8

9 1. The BPR and disinfectants Approval process of biocidal products remains the same: The active substance (AS) sets the pace 1. Evaluation and approval of active substance(s) 2. Authorisation of biocidal product #9

10 1. The BPR and disinfectants Relevant product-types within the scope of the BPR Product-type 1: Human hygiene Product-type 2: Disinfectants and algaecides not intended for direct application to humans or animals Product-type 3: Veterinary hygiene Product-type 4: Food and feed area Product-type 5: Drinking water Product-type 6-13: Preservatives. #10

11 1. The BPR and disinfectants Large amount of unique biocidal products on the market (not only disinfectants!) Germany > products registered France > products registered Denmark > products (300 registered) Netherlands > products authorised (800 disinfectants) Huge variation of products (22 Product types) Disinfection products (PT1-5) the largest #11

15 1. The BPR and disinfectants Complex regulation Guidelines being developed in parallel of deadlines for industry Used to having (relatively) easy market access Requirements of the BPR is a regulatory paradigm shift for industry within disinfection #15

25 03. Options for formulators to defend their products #25

26 3. Options for formulators to defend their products General considerations: Have a strategy- and stick to it Stay or leave the market; exit strategy Explore active substance suppliers options, buy into their formulations Explore biocidal product family concept, non-complex products, room for many formulations Invest in own application/ dossier, full control Same biocidal products regulation, low IPR, private label Alone vs. work in consortia #26

27 3. Options for formulators to defend their products What needs to be invested in for a typical biocidal products authorsation: LOA, active substance(s) LOA, data on formulation Or own data on formulation, phys-chem, methods of analysis, efficacy Invest in resources to make the application, many different formats like IUCLID, PAR, SPC, R4BP Fees to ECHA, evaluating MS CA #27

28 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #1 AS supplier defends own formulations. Product formulator wants to be fully covered by AS suppliers authorisation. AS supplier Product formulator #28

29 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #1 AS supplier defends own formulations. Product formulator wants to be fully covered by AS suppliers authorisation. Pros No costs to LOA, AS No costs to data on formulation Cons AS suppliers name on label No control of product No investment in resources No fees to authorities #29

30 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #1 AS supplier or other entity defends a number of formulations. Product formulator wants to be partly covered by AS suppliers or other entities authorisation. AS supplier Product formulator #30

31 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #2 AS supplier or other entity defends a number of formulations. Product formulator wants to be partly covered by AS suppliers or other entities authorisation. Pros Little investment in resources Small fees to authorities < EUR Own name on label Cons LOA to AS LOA to data on product No control of product #31

32 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #3 Product formulator defends own products with own authorisation- typically by exploring the biocidal products family concept. Product formulator #32

33 3. Options for formulators to defend their products Option #3 Product formulator defends own products with own authorisation- typically by exploring the biocidal products family concept. Pros Full control and ownership Cons Costs to LOA, AS Own name on label Costs to data on formulation Sell LOA on data to others Investment in resources Fees to authorities #33

34 04. Consortia #34

35 4. Consortia Option #4 Product formulators form consortia to defend own products with own separate authorisations- typically by exploring the biocidal products family concept paired with the same biocidal products concept. Core dossier BPF covering all products of product formulators Product formulator 1 Product formulator 2 Product formulator 3 Product formulator X #35

36 4. Consortia Share costs Data on product Resources Fees to authorities LOA, AS Legal help Beware of antitrust regulation #36

37 4. Consortia The Biocidal Products Regulation gives producers, importers and distributors of biocidal products the opportunity to obtain authorisations through voluntary cooperation/consortia The aim of joining a cooperation is to reduce costs related to authority fees, tests, technical work and legal assistance. The principle is simple: Sharing costs among many companies will reduce costs for the single company. The reduction is significant even when there are only few members in a cooperation. #37

38 4. Consortia In addition to the benefit of shared authorisation costs, joining a consortium gives you the opportunity to obtain authorisation of own products based on the principle of the biocidal product family concept and the same biocidal products regulation. This enables you to maintain individual product authorisations independently. The consortium is targeted producers, distributors and formulators placing biocidal products on the market. It will be of interest to small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) within biocidal products and biocidal product families #38

39 4. Consortia As member of a consortium, you are supported with: Setting up and facilitation of the consortium Communication with EU regulatory bodies and member state authorities Data gap analysis Detailed cost analysis study Testing strategy and tests Legal advice Exposure and risk assessment Dossier preparation and submission Post submission #39

40 4. Consortia Read more here: #40

41 Summary BPR is a complex legislation posing high pressure on disinfection SMEs within the next years ECHA and MS have picked up speed in active substance evaluation- typical 2 year deadlines are kicking in for important disinfectant actives Different options for formulators to stay on the market- by exploring biocidal family concept, same biocidal product concept Exploring consortia concept #41
