Biopesticide Registration Services in Europe

Sustainable use of environmental resources encouraged the development of biological products to balance the usage of synthetic chemicals in PPP. Auxilife’s extensive experience and expertise sufficiently support you for the registration of microbial, semiochemicals, and plant or natural extracts in the EU. The European Union's Biopesticide Products Regulation (EC No. 1107/2009) presents a complex landscape for companies seeking to register their biopesticides within the EU market. Auxilife Understands these challenges and provides comprehensive support throughout your biopesticidal product’s life span.

Biopesticides are not recognized by the EU as a distinct regulatory category from other PPPs. However, a more focused strategy for biopesticides containing microorganisms has been adopted by regulatory changes that went into effect in November2022. Microscopic organisms, including bacteria, fungi, viruses, and protozoa, have the potential for use in plant biocontrol due to their inherent parasitic or pathogenic properties towards insect pests and other plant pathogens. These microbial agents have been utilized globally, including within the European Union (EU). Our team of experts can help you navigate the intricacies of agrochemicals regulatory consultations and ensure a smoother path to successful registration.
