Pyrithione zinc (Zinc pyrithione) - consultation on potential candidates for substitution and on derogations conditions
Pyrithione zinc (Zinc pyrithione) - consultation on potential candidates for substitution and on derogations conditions
If an active substance meets any of the criteria for substitution listed in Article 10(1) of the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), then the evaluating competent authority may identify the substance as a potential candidate for substitution (CfS).
If this is the case, normally before submitting its opinion on the approval or renewal of the renewal of the active substance to the Commission, ECHA will launch a consultation to collect information on potential alternatives to this substance (Article 10(3) if the BPR).
