Guidance on Article 95

List of Active Substances and Suppliers (Article 95)

Manufacturers and importers not involved with the review programme of the previous legislation have to submit certain information to European Chemical Agency (ECHA) in order to have their source of active substance included on the Article 95 listing that is published by ECHA. A biocidal product cannot be made available on the European market unless either the substance supplier or the product supplier is included in the Article 95 list for the product-type for which the product belongs.
