european biocides information network

"European biocides information network" is a network initiative operated by CW Research Ltd in cooperation with the Austrian Ministry for Environment and other supporters. It has been developed to primarily serve small and medium enterprises, but also industry and authorities. It intends to be continuously enlarged and updated on a regular basis and such performs as a time saving one-stop-shop platform with pre-selected and commented hyperlinks, articles and documents. One main focus is to keep the structure as lean as possible to enable a fast overview. Thanks to the commitment of the sponsors of this project we can provide free password protected access to this source of information for all interested parties.

The content covers:

• background, guidance and information on current and upcoming issues concerning biocides under the EU regime;
• information about member states, contact details of the relevant competent authorities and poison information centres as well as relevant  and publicly available regulatory inventories and sources of electronically available legal texts;
• contributions from authorities and industry experts aiming at a European wide harmonised understanding and handling of biocides regulations;
• clarification on specific scope issues;
• information about test-houses ;
• contact details of specialised consultants and overviews of  their services;

A scientific advisory committee, the members of which are all experts in the field of biocidal regulatory and scientific issues, advises and controls and such ensures the quality and high level of information and continuous development of this network
