            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2025/474
of 13 March 2025
         
granting a Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ 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 29 April 2024, BÜFA Cleaning GmbH & Co. KG submitted an application to the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’) in accordance with Article 43(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 and Article 4 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013 (2) for Union authorisation of the same single biocidal product, as referred to in Article 1 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013, named ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’, of product-types 2 and 4, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. The application referred to the single biocidal product ‘CLARMARIN® 350’ (authorisation number EU-0028964-0005), which is a part of the related reference biocidal product family ‘Evonik’s Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’. The application was recorded under case number BC-AN094539-21 in the Register for Biocidal Products. The application also indicated the authorisation number of the related reference biocidal product family ‘Evonik's Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ authorised by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/2183 (3), with authorisation number EU-0028964-0000.












(2)


The single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ contains hydrogen peroxide as the active substance, 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 29 July 2024, the Agency submitted to the Commission its opinion (4) and the draft summary of the biocidal product characteristics (‘SPC’) of ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013 and Article 44(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.












(4)


In its opinion, the Agency concludes that the proposed differences between the single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ and the related single biocidal product ‘CLARMARIN® 350’, which is a part of the related reference biocidal product family ‘Evonik's Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’, are limited to information which can be the subject of an administrative change in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013 (5), and that based on the assessment of the related reference biocidal product family ‘Evonik's Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’ and subject to compliance with the draft SPC, the same single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ meets the conditions laid down in Article 19(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.












(5)


The Commission concurs with the opinion of the Agency and considers it therefore appropriate to grant a Union authorisation for the same single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’.












(6)


The expiry date of the authorisation should be aligned with the expiry date of the authorisation of the related reference biocidal product family ‘Evonik's Hydrogen Peroxide Product Family’.












(7)


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-0033025-0000 is hereby granted to BÜFA Cleaning GmbH & Co. KG for the making available on the market and use of the same single biocidal product ‘Büfa-Oxy WS’ in accordance with the summary of the biocidal product characteristics set out in the Annex.
The Union authorisation is valid from 6 April 2025 until 31 October 2033.
