At RT Coopers solicitors the regulatory lawyers will advise and assist you with achieving compliance of your biocidal products under the UK Biocidal Product Regulation ('UK BPR') including antibacterial wipes, antiviral wipes, disinfectants and hand sanitisers, whether you manufacture, sell, distribute or import biocides such as antibacterial wipes, antiviral wipes, disinfectants and hand sanitisers, insecticides or pesticides. The UK has adopted the EU 528/2012 ('EU BPR'). The UK BPR is relevant to your business if you are making biocidal products available on the UK market and/or placing treated articles on the UK market.

Our solicitors for antibacterial products are experts in product regulatory law. Our regulatory solicitors have vast experience of advising and assisting manufacturing companies, distributors and importers on getting biocidal; products authorised. The point is that before you can place a biocidal product on the market in the UK, it must have an authorisation, and the active substances contained in that biocidal product must be previously approved. This is where we come in as we are able to assist your company with the application for authorisation and approval.

Testimonials

Advanced Formulations (Europe) Ltd

'The firm helped us through a scientific and regulatory issue raised by the HSE and we were poorly equipped to respond to the authority, prior to your firm’s efforts. Our overall impression of RT Coopers is that the firm is professional. The biocidal lawyers conducted a conscientious review of our issues and we got precise responses which we needed. The legal commentary on our issues helped us to respond to the authorities with confidence. The Report prepared by the firm was extremely detailed and enabled us to respond to the HSE where their follow up questions were minimal'. Sean-Robbie Campbell, Chief Executive Officer, Advanced Formulations (Europe) Ltd
