Biocides are chemical substances or mixtures, like disinfectants, antimicrobials, preservatives, and insect repellents, that are designed to control harmful organisms (pests, bacteria, viruses) by chemical or biological means. The definition, categorisation, the regulations and competent authorities responsible for controlling them can differ globally.

Navigating the complex global regulations for biocides and pesticides can feel overwhelming. These regulations are designed to protect human health and the environment from the potential risks associated with such biocides and their uses, but they create significant challenges for companies trying to bring their essential products to market or in keeping them compliant.

We help you meet these challenging requirements across the globe, ensuring your biocidal products, treated articles, and pesticides are correctly classified, authorized, and compliant, so you can maintain market access and focus on your business goals.

For example the EU and UK this would require compliance with the Biocidal Product Regulation (BPR) and the necessary processes involved specifically to your company's position.

For the US and Canada this would be determined based on the actives used and the use and claims of the particular product. The authorities and regulations governing the requirements differ also based on this information.

For Turkey, this would require compliance with Turkey BPR.
