Federal Environment Agency makes database available

The Federal Environment Agency (UBA) has set up a database for biocidal active substances (Biocides in the Environment, BiU). It contains data and information on more than 90 biocidal active substances, such as where they are used and how they affect the environment.

The information comprises more than 80,000 data records, which are updated regularly. They originate from scientific articles and research reports.

Interested parties can find information in the database about

  • the authorization status according to the EU Biocidal Products Regulation, BPR
  • Relevant monitoring data
  • Physical-chemical properties
  • the classification according to the CLP Regulation

According to the UBA, the tool can be used for the environmental impact assessment of biocidal products, for example.

We advise you with regard to the requirements of Regulation (EU) No. 528/2012 (Biocidal Products Regulation, BPR), check the labeling and marketability of biocidal products within the EU and carry out the biocide notification in Germany with the BAuA in accordance with the Ordinance on the Notification of Biocidal Products under the Chemicals Act (ChemBiozidMeldeV).
