THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 May 2012 concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal productsnote, and in particular Article 50(2) thereof,Whereas:
(1)On 3 September 2024, Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2189note granted a Union authorisation, under number EU-0032009-0000, to Diversey Europe Operations B.V. for the making available on the market and use of the single biocidal product ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’. The Annex to that Implementing Regulation provides a summary of biocidal product characteristics for that single biocidal product.
(2)On 24 March 2025, Diversey Europe Operations B.V. submitted to the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’), in accordance with Article 11(1) of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013note, a notification of administrative changes to the Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’, as referred to in Title 1 of the Annex to that Regulation. The notification was recorded in the Register for Biocidal Products (‘the Register’) under case number BC-KA104994-50. The notified proposed changes to that authorisation concern a change to the address of the authorisation holder and a change to the address of one of the biocidal product manufacturers.
(3)On 11 April 2025, the Agency submitted to the Commission, in accordance with Article 11(3) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013, an opinionnote on the notified administrative changes to the Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’. In the opinion, the Agency concludes that the proposed changes are administrative changes as referred to in Article 50(3), point (a), of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 and as specified in Title 1, Section 1 and Section 2, of the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013, and that after the implementation of the changes, the conditions of Article 19 of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 will still be met.
(4)On 11 April 2025, the Agency transmitted to the Commission a revised summary of the biocidal product characteristics of the Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’ in all official languages of the Union, covering the administrative changes applied for, in accordance with Article 11(6) of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013.
(5)The Commission concurs with the opinion of the Agency and therefore considers it appropriate to amend the Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’ to introduce the administrative changes requested by Diversey Europe Operations B.V.
(6)Except for the amendments regarding the administrative changes, all other information included in the summary of the biocidal product characteristics of ‘ClearKlens wipes based on IPA’ as set out in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2189 remains unchanged.
(7)In order to enhance clarity and to ease the access of users and interested parties to the consolidated version of the summary of the biocidal product characteristics which is to be published by the Agency, the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2189 should be replaced in its entirety. Due to a change in the format used for the generation of the summary of biocidal product characteristics in the Register in February 2024, the summary of biocidal product characteristics in that Annex should also include some minor editorial and layout changes.
(8)Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2189 should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1#
The Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2189 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.
Article 2#
This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
