Directives

Lois et directives

Pour l’autorisation des biocides, nous testons les groupes de produits PT 18 (insecticides, acaricides et produits contre autres arthropodes) et PT 19 (répulsifs et attractifs) selon les normes et directives internationales. Au cas rare qu’il n’y aurait pas de lois pour un produit testé, nous nous orientons aux études scientifiques actuelles.

Voici quelques organisations qui sont responsables des directives et standards internationaux :

• American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM)

• American Type Culture Collection (ATTCC)

• European Chemicals Agency (ECHA)

• Environmental Protection Agency der USA (EPA)

• World Health Organization (WHO)

• Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)

Voici quelques-unes des lois directives qui sont importantes pour nous.
