COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/2001

of 8 November 2017

approving propan-1-ol as an existing active substance for use in biocidal products of product-type 1, 2 and 4

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) establishes a list of existing active substances to be evaluated for their possible approval for use in biocidal products. That list includes propan-1-ol.

(2)

Propan-1-ol has been evaluated for use in products of product-type 1, human hygiene, product-type 2, disinfectants and algaecides not intended for direct application to humans or animals, and product-type 4, food and feed area, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(3)

Germany was designated as evaluating competent authority and submitted the assessment reports together with its recommendations on 18 July 2016.

(4)

In accordance with Article 7(2) of Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014, the opinions of the European Chemicals Agency were formulated on 27 April 2017 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority.

(5)

According to those opinions, biocidal products of product-types 1, 2 and 4 and containing propan-1-ol may be expected to satisfy the criteria of Article 19(1)(b) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, provided that certain specifications and conditions concerning their use are complied with.

(6)

It is therefore appropriate to approve propan-1-ol for use in biocidal products of product-types 1, 2 and 4, subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions.

(7)

A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Propan-1-ol is approved as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-types 1, 2 and 4, subject to the specifications and conditions set out in the Annex.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2017/2003

of 8 November 2017

approving fludioxonil as an active substance for use in biocidal products of product-types 7, 9 and 10

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular Article 9(1)(a) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Denmark received on 8 October 2014 an application for the approval of the active substance fludioxonil for use in biocidal products of product-type 7, film preservatives, product-type 9, fibre, leather, rubber and polymerised materials preservatives, and product-type 10, construction material preservatives, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(2)

Denmark submitted the assessment reports together with its recommendations on 5 April 2016 in accordance with Article 8(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(3)

The opinions of the European Chemicals Agency were formulated on 2 March 2017 by the Biocidal Products Committee, having regard to the conclusions of the evaluating competent authority.

(5)

It is therefore appropriate to approve fludioxonil for use in biocidal products of product-types 7, 9 and 10, subject to compliance with certain specifications and conditions.

(6)

Since fludioxonil meets the criteria laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) for being very persistent, treated articles treated with or incorporating fludioxonil should be appropriately labelled when placed on the market.

(7)

A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular the third subparagraph of Article 89(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2014 (2) establishes a list of existing active substances to be evaluated for their possible approval for use in biocidal products. That list includes 2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one.

(2)

2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one has been evaluated for use in products of product-type 12, slimicides, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

Since 2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one meets the criteria for classification as skin sensitiser sub-category 1A as specified in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council (3), treated articles treated with or incorporating 2-methylisothiazol-3(2H)-one should be appropriately labelled when placed on the market.

(8)

A reasonable period should be allowed to elapse before an active substance is approved in order to permit interested parties to take the preparatory measures necessary to meet the new requirements.
