Field(s) of use	Indoor Indoor, closed spaces. Industrial/pharmaceutical industry or cosmetics industry, for example clean rooms. Medical - healthcare facilities, hospitals and emergency vehicles. Institutional. Disinfection of non-porous surfaces
Application method(s)	Method: - Detailed description: Automated, non-directed aerosolization (e.g. fogging or spraying)
Application rate(s) and frequency	Application Rate: 13% hydrogen peroxide (undiluted product) applied via aerosolization in closed rooms. Dilution (%): Number and timing of application: Frequency - as required by user, for example up to 3 times per day. Treatment time depends on machine type, size of room or area of surfaces to be disinfected. Apply at room temperature.
Category(ies) of users	Professional
Pack sizes and packaging material	Pack sizes (L): 0.25, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 22, 30, 60, 200, 220 and 1000 L Packaging material: Approved grades of HDPE.

4.1.1.   Use-specific instructions for use

Use an automated loading system.

13% (w/w) hydrogen peroxide (undiluted product) is applied via aerosolization by automated device in a sealed room. Rooms may be dehumidified to achieve higher hydrogen peroxide concentrations on surfaces.

Remove barriers that may hinder aerosolized product from reaching the surfaces to be disinfected.

The disinfected surfaces should be non-porous and cleaned before application of the product. The product is not intended to be used on surfaces that may come into contact with food or feeding stuffs.

The user should carry out a microbiological validation of the disinfection in the rooms to be disinfected (or in a suitable "standard room", if applicable) with the devices to be used, after which a protocol for disinfection of these rooms can be made and used thereafter. Each device or specific installation is systematically validated when it is set up. The optimal operating conditions are validated on site (temperature, hygrometry, product to be used, diffusion time, extraction time, etc.). Besides biological validation chemical validation should be performed.

Efficacy of room disinfection was demonstrated according to norm NF T 72-281 by nebulization of 1 g of hydrogen peroxide per cubic meter of room volume in 22 min followed by 180 min contact time at room temperature.

Volume of disinfected space should be 30 - 150 m3.

Median particle size should be <0.5 μm in aerosols used for disinfection

Prevent entry during disinfection process

4.1.2.   Use-specific risk mitigation measures

Surfaces in the treatment area must be clean and dry prior to application.

Seal the treatment enclosure (e.g. with tape) to ensure that hydrogen peroxide levels outside the enclosure are kept at acceptable health and safety levels.

Ensure all personnel have vacated the treatment enclosure prior to application. Remove all plants, animals, beverages and food. Re-entry is only permitted once the air concentration has dropped below the reference value (1.25 mg/m3). After the application, the room must be ventilated, preferably by mechanical ventilation. The duration of the ventilation period has to be established by measurement with suitable measurement equipment. In case of the room has to be entered when the hydrogen peroxide concentration is still above 1.25 mg/m3 it is only allowed by wearing appropriate PPE including SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus).

Place warning signs on all entrances to the treatment enclosure.

4.1.1.   Use-specific instructions for use

Use an automated loading system.

49% (w/w) hydrogen peroxide (undiluted product) is applied via aerosolization by automated device in a sealed room. Rooms may be dehumidified to achieve higher hydrogen peroxide concentrations on surfaces.

Remove barriers that may hinder aerosolized product from reaching the surfaces to be disinfected.

The disinfected surfaces should be non-porous and cleaned before application of the product. The product is not intended to be used on surfaces that may come into contact with food or feeding stuffs.

The user should carry out a microbiological validation of the disinfection in the rooms to be disinfected (or in a suitable "standard room", if applicable) with the devices to be used, after which a protocol for disinfection of these rooms can be made and used thereafter. Each device or specific installation is systematically validated when it is set up. The optimal operating conditions are validated on site (temperature, hygrometry, product to be used, diffusion time, extraction time, etc.). Besides biological validation chemical validation should be performed.

Efficacy of room disinfection was demonstrated according to norm NF T 72-281by nebulization of 1 g of hydrogen peroxide per cubic meter of room volume in 22 min followed by 180 min contact time at room temperature.

Volume of disinfected space should be 30 - 150 m3.

Median particle size should be <0.5 μm in aerosols used for disinfection.

Prevent entry during disinfection process.

4.1.2.   Use-specific risk mitigation measures

Surfaces in the treatment area must be clean and dry prior to application.

Seal the treatment enclosure (e.g. with tape) to ensure that hydrogen peroxide levels outside the enclosure are kept at acceptable health and safety levels.

Ensure all personnel have vacated the treatment enclosure prior to application. Remove all plants, animals, beverages and food. Re-entry is only permitted once the air concentration has dropped below the reference value (1.25 mg/m3). After the application, the room must be ventilated, preferably by mechanical ventilation. The duration of the ventilation period has to be established by measurement with suitable measurement equipment. In case the room has to be entered when the hydrogen peroxide concentration is still above 1.25 mg/m3 it is only allowed by wearing appropriate PPE including SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus).

Place warning signs on all entrances to the treatment enclosure.

4.2.2.   Use-specific risk mitigation measures

Automated spraying systems:

During the operation worker must leave the area and access must be denied by appropriate barriers or locked doors. After operation efficient ventilation (10 ACH) must be used to reach a safe level. During this period access must also be denied. Air concentrations must be monitored to ensure that no leakage occurs during operations. For re-entry, the undercut of AECinhalation of 1.25 mg/m3 shall be ensured with technical and organisational measures (e.g. sensor, defined ventilation period).

For manual spraying:

A protective coverall (at least type 6, EN 13034) shall be worn.

Use of respiratory protective equipment (RPE) providing a protection factor of 10 is mandatory. At least a powered air purifying respirator with helmet/hood/mask (TH1/TM1), or a half/full mask with combination filter gas/P2 is required (filter type (code letter, colour) to be specified by the authorisation holder within the product information).

Only operators wearing the specified RPE should be present while spraying or fumigating.

The operator must walk backward towards the exit while spraying the surfaces so always walking away from sprayed areas.

Efficient ventilation (10 ACH) must be used during spraying and access must be denied by appropriate barriers and notices. Also after operation efficient ventilation (10 ACH) must be used to reach a safe level. During this period access must also be denied. Air concentrations must be monitored to ensure that no leakage occurs during operations. For re-entry, the undercut of AECinhalation of 1.25 mg/m3 shall be ensured with technical and organisational measures (e.g. sensor, defined ventilation period).

No secondary exposure is expected because of rapid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.
