Biocides and Food Production in the EU and UK

November 5, 2025

12:00 - 1:00 pm ET

This webinar will focus on the regulatory frameworks that govern biocides in food production, providing a clear breakdown of key concepts, obligations, and scope of their application. We will also address the latest requirements affecting businesses on both sides of the Channel.

Experts will explore the broader legal context surrounding biocides, including their interaction with related regulatory frameworks – such as those governing food contact materials and food preservatives – and the considerations surrounding maximum residue limits (MRLs) and specific migration limits for active substances in biocidal products, ensuring attendees understand how these thresholds impact compliance.

As the EU and UK regulatory systems continue to diverge in the wake of Brexit, we will analyze the emerging differences and their implications for companies operating in these jurisdictions.
