Biocides Stakeholders' Day 2017
Our fifth Biocides Stakeholders' Day took place on 26 and 27 September 2017 in Helsinki. The event gave the latest information on the Biocidal Products Regulation and the tools and support available. The focus was on experiences from companies, Member States, ECHA and the European Commission.
We also organised altogether 35 one-to-one meetings with our experts and training on the biocides IT tools (IUCLID, R4BP 3 and SPC Editor).
