Compliance statement - EU biocidal product regulation compliance
As an in-situ generated biocide, the product is within the scope of the European Union Biocidal Product Regulation (EU 528/2012), commonly known as the BPR. A positive opinion was adopted by the Biocidal Product Committee (BPC) on 16th June 2020 for the active ingredient in eloclearTM, “active chlorine generated from sodium chloride by electrolysis”, and subsequently the active substance was approved on 1st July 2022.
Ozo Innovations have fully complied the with EU BPR process and submitted a Union Authorisation product dossier for eloclear, as well as registering eloclear in a number of EU member states in accordance
with existing national requirements, prior to the 1st July 2022. Ozo Innovations is included on the EU BPR Article 95 list as an approved supplier of products containing “active chlorine generated from sodium chloride by electrolysis” for biocidal product types 2 and 4.
Following the decision to leave the EU, the UK Government have established a similar process for biocide authorisation (GB BPR) administered by the UK’s Competent Authority (HSE). The active substance will undergo its own evaluation and approval under the GB BPR. Active chlorine generated from sodium chloride by electrolysis is currently undergoing the notification process in GB and during this time there is no requirement for suppliers to be listed on GB Article 95. However, Ozo is still able to supply during this notification period. Ozo is able to provide this in writing from the HSE and further information can be found on the HSE website concerning the requirements for product supply during this period: Biocides: active substance status - Biocides - HSE
