Join our in-person workshop on the efficacy of disinfectant products

This in-person, one-day training workshop is designed to offer a comprehensive introduction to the information and evaluation requirements for efficacy of disinfectant products, as required by the EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR).

In addition to gaining valuable training and understanding of biocidal efficacy at the workshop, delegates attending the main conference will learn about current efficacy issues, developing test methods and hot topics in this area.

The workshop is targeted at the non-expert and is designed to provide a detailed overview and examination of the efficacy requirements for biocidal disinfectant products under the BPR.

By attending this training course, you will:

  • further your understanding of the nature and extent of efficacy data needed to support product authorisation under the BPR;
  • gain an appreciation of the level of scrutiny involved and how a regulator approaches the evaluation of a data package;
  • learn how to approach claim substantiation using the correct data (and available guidance); and
  • understand the options available in situations where data is limited or unavailable or when available data does not meet the expected requirements.

What can you expect from the course?  

  • Two expert trainers each with more than 30 years’ experience in the regulation of biocidal products and efficacy. Experience developed from working within government, industry, consultancy, trade associations and test laboratories
  • The opportunity to engage with experts and delegates alike in a relaxed but professional setting
  • The chance to 'raise your hand' and put questions forward throughout the sessions and the opportunity to get ‘hands on’ with practical exercises and problem solving

The workshop is aimed at:

  • producers;
  • retailers;
  • formulators;
  • importers of biocidal disinfectant products and treated articles;
  • authorisation holders of biocidal products; and
