            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2025/975
of 16 May 2025
         
granting a Union authorisation for the biocidal product family ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ 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 October 2015, Henkel AG & Co. KGaA submitted to the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’) an application in accordance with Article 43(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for Union authorisation of a biocidal product family named ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ of product-type 18, 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-DT020592-32 in the Register for Biocidal Products.












(2)


‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ contains transfluthrin 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-type 18.












(3)


On 3 June 2023, 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 10 October 2024, the Agency submitted to the Commission its opinion (2), the draft summary of the biocidal product characteristics (‘SPC’) of ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ 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 ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ 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(6) of that Regulation.












(6)


On 24 October 2024, 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 ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’.












(8)


In its opinion, the Agency recommends that the authorisation holder conducts a long-term storage stability test for the products in meta SPC 2 of ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ to confirm a shelf-life of 24 months at ambient temperature. That test should be performed in the commercial packaging in which the products are to be made available on the market and address the relevant physical, chemical and technical properties of that product both prior to and after storage. The Commission agrees with that recommendation of the Agency and considers that the submission of the results of that test should be a condition relating to the making available on the market and use of the biocidal products of the biocidal product family ‘Transfluthrin emanators UA BPF’ pursuant to Article 22(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. The Commission also considers that the fact that data is to be provided after the authorisation is granted does not affect the conclusion on the fulfilment of the condition under Article 19(1), point (d), of that Regulation based on existing data.












(9)


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

4.1.   Use description


Table 1


Anti-mosquitoes (electrical evaporation)







Product type


PT18: Insecticides, acaricides and products to control other arthropods




Where relevant, an exact description of the authorised use


Insecticide




Target organism(s) (including development stage)


Scientific name: Culicidae
Common name: mosquitoes
Development stage: adults




Field(s) of use


indoor use
Ready to use insecticide - indoor use against mosquitoes.




Application method(s)


Method: Electrical evaporation from liquid in diffuser
Detailed description:
-




Application rate(s) and frequency


Application rate: 0,63 mg transfluthrin /hour 24 hours/day
Ready-to-use product
1 unit is sufficient to treat a room volume of 30 m3 room for 300 hours (20 g bottle), 360 hours (24 g bottle) or 480 hours (32 g bottle).
Number and timing of application:
24 hours per day




Category(ies) of users


general public (non-professional)




Pack sizes and packaging material


Primary packaging: plastic polyethylene terephtahalate (PET) bottle of 20 g (23,43 ml) or 24 g (28,10 ml) or 32 g (35 ml) with polypropylene (PP) screw cap.
Secondary packaging: cardboard box containing 1, 2, 3 individual bottles




4.1.1.   Use-specific instructions



Instructions for use


Take the product out of the cardboard box, remove the cap and place it in the electrical plug-in device. Place the electrical diffuser in a socket inside the room where protection is needed. Do not cover product. Against mosquitoes the normal mode is sufficient. Replace product once all liquid is used. This corresponds to the service life reaching its maximum. Once the bottle is empty (end of service life is reached), dispose and replace by a new one to continue protection.


Period of time needed for biocidal effect


Mosquitoes:
1 hour
Use 1 unit per room of 30 m3

4.2.1.   Use-specific instructions



Instructions for use


Take the product out of the cardboard box, remove the cap and place it in the electrical plug-in device. Place the electrical diffuser in a socket inside the room where protection is needed. The refill unit should be used in a Henkel electrical device with two working modes (normal or and max./booster) and with a timer. Set the switch to max. (booster) mode to ensure protection against both mosquitoes and flies (see further instructions on device). Depending on the device model it will work in max mode for 15h and then will stop for 9 hours, or it will work for 12h in max mode (plus automatic additional 12 hours of mosquito protection in normal mode). In both cases, these daily cycles are repeated automatically until the consumer changes the switch or unplugs. Do not cover product. Replace product once all liquid is used. This corresponds to the service life reaching its maximum. Once bottle is empty (end of service life is reached), dispose and replace by a new one to continue protection.


Period of time needed for biocidal effect


Mosquitoes and flies 4 hours
Use 1 unit per room of 30 m3
