COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2023/2183

of 18 October 2023

granting a Union authorisation for the biocidal product family ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products (1), and in particular Article 44(5), first subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

(1)

On 20 January 2017, Evonik Operations GmbH submitted to the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’) an application in accordance with Article 43(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for a Union authorisation of a biocidal product family named ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ of product-types 2 and 4, as described in Annex V to that Regulation, providing written confirmation that the competent authority of the Netherlands had agreed to evaluate the application. The application was recorded under case number BC-UE029056-42 in the Register for Biocidal Products.

(2)

‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ contains hydrogen peroxide as the active substance, which is included in the Union list of approved active substances referred to in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for product-types 2 and 4.

(3)

On 7 January 2022, the evaluating competent authority submitted, in accordance with Article 44(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, an assessment report and the conclusions of its evaluation to the Agency.

(4)

On 5 July 2022, the Agency submitted to the Commission its opinion (2), including the draft summary of the biocidal product characteristics (‘SPC’) of ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ and the final assessment report on the biocidal product family in accordance with Article 44(3) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(5)

The opinion concludes that ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ is a biocidal product family within the meaning of Article 3(1), point (s), of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, that it is eligible for Union authorisation in accordance with Article 42(1) of that Regulation and that, subject to compliance with the draft SPC, it meets the conditions laid down in Article 19(1) and (6) of that Regulation.

(6)

On 19 July 2022, the Agency transmitted to the Commission the draft SPC in all the official languages of the Union in accordance with Article 44(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.

(7)

The Commission concurs with the opinion of the Agency and considers it therefore appropriate to grant a Union authorisation for ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’.

(8)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

A Union authorisation with authorisation number EU-0028964-0000 is granted to Evonik Operations GmbH for the making available on the market and use of the biocidal product family ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ in accordance with the summary of the biocidal product characteristics set out in the Annex.

The Union authorisation is valid from 8 November 2023 until 31 October 2033.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 18 October 2023.

HDPE jerry can 10, 20, 30, 60 litres

HDPE drum 200 litres

HDPE container 1000 litres

HDPE ISO tank 20m3

4.1.1.   Use-specific instructions for use

The area to disinfect is prepared for decontamination by removing standing liquid and by wiping down any visible dirt. Clean the area before disinfection. Cupboard doors should be opened, surfaces should be dried and wet areas (such as sinks) should be disinfected with suitable alternative products.

Specially trained professionals replace the cap of the sealed packaging with a special cap that has a degassing valve and a fast connector. The fast connector is connected to a pipe that connects to the VHP generator. Seal the enclosed space or room and make sure that access to the vapour-treated area is denied during the whole procedure.

Room volume ranging from 30m3 to 150 m3.

Diffusion speed can vary from 1,5 to 20 g product/minute.

Starting temperature of 20 °C, ± 2 °C.

Relative humidity between 40 and 80 %.

During the disinfection cycle the VHP generator adjusts the hydrogen peroxide concentration up to the effective levels of 1092 mg/m3 (780 ppm) and keeps it at this level for at least 4 hours. Concentration of hydrogen peroxide is monitored during the disinfection. After disinfection the aeration of the sealed area is required to reduce the concentration of hydrogen peroxide below 1,25 mg/m3 or a lower relevant national reference value before entering the area. This step can be quick but can also last several hours resulting in a total decontamination cycle of 5 – 8 hours.

The user shall always carry out a microbiological validation of the disinfection in the rooms to be disinfected (or in a suitable ‘standard room’, if applicable) with the devices to be used, after which a protocol for disinfection of these rooms can be made and used thereafter. In the event that there are methods available for chemically monitoring the active substance in the air or on surfaces, chemical validation should be performed besides biological validation, for example with test strips or with a device that measures ppm hydrogen peroxide in the air.

When it concerns a ‘standard room’ for which a protocol is available, the validation may be limited to only a chemical validation.

4.1.2.   Use-specific risk mitigation measures

Wear chemical resistant goggles consistent with European Standard EN 16321 or equivalent, protective clothing chemically resistant to the biocidal products, chemical resistant gloves classified under European Standard EN 374 or equivalent, face shield and Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE) (Assigned Protection Factor (APF) = 10) during mixing and loading. Gloves and coverall material to be specified by the authorisation holder within the product information. See section 6 for the full titles of the EN standards.

This is without prejudice to the application of Council Directive 98/24/EC and other Union legislation in the area of health and safety at work. See section 6 for the full reference to Council Directive 98/24/EC.

No access to the treated area is permitted during treatment. During aeration and before permitting re-entry to the treated area it should be checked that the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is below 1,25 mg/m3 or a lower relevant national reference value, using for example test strips. During the operation of the VHP generator or in the event of malfunctions, entry to the room is only possible if wearing chemical protective suits and RPE (APF = 10), when the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is at or below 12,5 mg/m3. Observe label instructions.

4.1.3.   Where specific to the use, the particulars of likely direct or indirect effects, first aid instructions and emergency measures to protect the environment

No use specific first aid instructions and emergency measures to protect the environment.See General directions for use.

4.1.4.   Where specific to the use, the instructions for safe disposal of the product and its packaging

4.3.1.   Use-specific instructions for use

The aseptic filling systems are based on the principle of aseptically forming a tube from a sterilised sheet of package material, which is continuously filled with commercially sterile liquid food product and subsequently transversally sealed to form pouches, which in turn are folded into the final package shape. The packaging material are delivered to the aseptic filling machine either in the form of (sheet) reels or in the form of pre-formed packs, tubs and bottles. Then, 35 % (w/w) hydrogen peroxide is sprayed or nebulised to the packaging material gradually via a nozzle. After that, several stages follow to evaporate any excess hydrogen peroxide with sterile hot air.

Depending on the size of the receptacle, an amount of 0,1 – 1 mL of 35 % (w/w) hydrogen peroxide is sprayed or nebulised gradually via a nozzle.

Temperature: ≥ 100 °C

Contact time: at least 5,5 seconds.

For example, for a product containing 49,9 % (w/w) hydrogen peroxide; add 700 ml product to 357 ml water to achieve a dilution of 35 % (w/w) hydrogen peroxide.

The user shall always carry out a microbiological validation of the disinfection, after which a protocol for disinfection of this packaging/system can be made and used thereafter.
