Biocides Stakeholders' Day
Around 200 people joined us today from more than 28 countries here in Helsinki to learn more about the EU biocidal products legislation. The programme featured the latest news from ECHA and the European Commission and experiences from European industry one year after the entry into operation of the new legislation.
The Biocidal Products Regulation deals with the placing on the market and use of biocidal products, which are used to protect humans, animals, materials or articles against harmful organisms, like pests or bacteria.
The recording of the event will be available soon.
