See a demo of the new R4BP3 in June during Biocides Stakeholders' Day

An updated version of the Register for Biocidal Products, R4BP3, is currently in a testing phase and will be launched by the beginning of September, when the new Biocidal Products Regulation enters into operation. R4BP3 will be the central hub for submitting all biocides applications and will be used by industry, national authorities and ECHA . You will have an opportunity to see a demo of the new tool during the Biocides Stakeholders' Day on 25 June 2013.

The Stakeholders' Day aims to engage key biocide stakeholders to ensure the successful implementation of the new regulation. The event will help companies to understand their roles and the available tools and resources to assist them in meeting their obligations. The day is open to all and participation in the conference is free of charge.

Biocides IT-tools developed with the regular consultation of Stakeholders

The new IT tools for the Biocidal Products Regulation have been under preparation since 2011 and ECHA has held regular workshops and consultations with its stakeholders to develop these tools. The objective is to create practical tools for industry and for Member States' competent authorities helping them to play their role in implementing the new regulation. The industry stakeholders and competent authorities have been involved since the very beginning of the project and ECHA is also committed to keeping this cooperation on-going also in the future. The Agency invites all interested stakeholders to get involved.
