Regulatory and claims guidanceLegislation concerning antimicrobial additives, product applications and claims differ across the world and manufacturers need to be sure that their products and marketing activity comply with each country in which they trade.
This is not an easy task with the EU Biocidal Products Directive undergoing a succession of changes and further countries beginning to establish their own regulations.
A failure in compliance can have serious legal implications, for example in the US the EPA has strict regulations that state what claims can be made about antimicrobial treated products. In the past these have been misinterpreted, leading to legal disputes and substantial fines.
