Non-approval decisions to be taken for unsupported active substances in the EU EU Review Programme industry support has been withdrawn for the active substance/product type combinations listed. Where the role of participant had not previously been taken over, no compliant notifications or dossiers were received through ECHA's open invitation process. These active substance/product type combinations will now be subject to an EU non-approval decision. This affects NI: - Pyrithione zinc (zinc pyrithione) (CAS 13463-41-7 EC EC 236-671-3) in product types 2 and 10
- Reaction products of 5,5-dimethylhydantoin, 5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin with bromine and chlorine (DCDMH) (CAS N/A EC N/A) in product type 11
- Reaction products of 5,5-dimethylhydantoin, 5-ethyl-5-methylhydantoin with chlorine (DCEMH) (CAS N/A EC N/A) in product type 11
- Chlorine dioxide (CAS 10049-04-4 EC 233-162-8) in product type 12
- 1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)-one (BIT) (CAS 2634-33-5 EC 220-120-9) in product type 2
Once a decision is taken, the active substances will no longer be able to be used in biocidal products of the relevant product types. In addition articles treated with such products will no longer be able to be placed on the market. HSE will provide separate updates on the decision and relevant phase-out periods.
If you are aware of any disproportionate negative impacts that are likely to arise from the non-approval of the active substance/product type combinations listed, please contact us as soon as possible. |
