This might interest you<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>If your biocidal products contain Geraniol, recent regulatory changes in the European Union may significantly affect your business. On July 2nd, 2025, ECHA (the European Chemicals Agency) released an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echa.europa.eu\/documents\/10162\/5604808\/list_of_notifications_en.pdf\">updated list of active substances included in the biocidal product review programme<\/a>. The new list introduces important changes for manufacturers, importers, and distributors of biocidal products across the European market.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Geraniol (CAS 106-24-1; EC 203-377-1)<\/strong> has long been <strong>used as an active substance in biocidal products, particularly those classified under PT 18 (insecticides) and PT 19 (repellents and attractants)<\/strong>. However, according to the latest ECHA update, <strong>no support or notification was submitted at the EU level to maintain Geraniol\u2019s approval for these uses<\/strong>. As a result, ECHA <strong>now considers Geraniol \u00abunsupported\u00bb for PT 18 and PT 19 applications<\/strong>, which <strong>is expected to lead to a formal non-approval decision<\/strong> by the European Commission.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What does this mean for the biocidal products industry? <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The updated situation imposes the following immediate regulatory consequences:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Geraniol will be removed from the list of approved active substances for PT 18 and PT 19.<\/li>\n<li>Placing biocidal products containing Geraniol on the EU market for these product types will be prohibited.<\/li>\n<li>Existing products with Geraniol can no longer be used or distributed within the European Union.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Currently, some products containing Geraniol may still be authorized under transitional measures, but each EU Member State will determine its own timeline and process for withdrawing these products. The timing and specific conditions for phasing out Geraniol-containing biocides may vary from country to country, making it essential for companies to monitor local regulatory updates closely.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you have biocidal products that list Geraniol as an active ingredient, now is an essential time to review your portfolio. Assess the compliance status of each product and explore alternative active substances or formulations to maintain your market presence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr class=\"\" style=\"margin:0 auto 30px;\"\/>\n\n<p>For expert assistance on regulatory compliance or advice regarding the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR), <a href=\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/contact-nordiik\/\">contact us today<\/a>! \u00a0Stay proactive\u2014ensure your biocidal products remain compliant with changing EU regulations.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If your biocidal products contain Geraniol, recent regulatory changes in the European Union may significantly affect your business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3130,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122],"tags":[102,96,107,103,98,256,97],"class_list":["post-3125","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-biocides","tag-active-substances","tag-biocidal-products","tag-biocidal-products-compliance","tag-biocide-registration","tag-bpr-regulation","tag-geraniol","tag-regulation-ue-528-2012"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Do your biocidal products contain Geraniol? | BPR | Nordiik<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"If your biocidal products contain Geraniol, recent regulatory changes in the European Union may significantly affect your business.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/biocides\/geraniol\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_ES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Do your biocidal products contain Geraniol? | BPR | Nordiik\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"If your biocidal products contain Geraniol, recent regulatory changes in the European Union may significantly affect your business.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/biocides\/geraniol\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Nordiik\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-07-23T10:53:41+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/pexels-egorkomarov-12029124-1.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1280\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"853\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"nordministrator\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Escrito por\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"nordministrator\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Tiempo de lectura\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutos\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/biocides\/geraniol\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/biocides\/geraniol\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"nordministrator\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/nordiik.com\/en\/#\/schema\/person\/475d78a12b79cb7ec94489f7a3f27c4c\"},\"headline\":\"Do your biocidal products contain Geraniol?
