On 20 May 2026 European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) Updated Article 95 List under the EU Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) lists relevant active substances (AS) and their suppliers for specific product-types (PT). It ensures fair competition by requiring that only suppliers who have submitted complete dossiers (or hold data access rights) can place biocidal products on the EU market. The list is structured by active substance and PT combinations, detailing supplier names, countries, inclusion dates (for both AS-PT and supplier), supplier types (substance supplier, product supplier, or both), and inclusion reasons (e.g., RP Participant, Art. 95 submission, Third Party Dossier, Art. 95(5) submission). Key points include transitional measures for older substances, handling of withdrawals/non-approvals, and in-situ generated substances. Suppliers must be on this list for market access; the document provides transparency on compliance and data protection periods. As of the 20 May 2026 status, it includes numerous entries with inclusion dates primarily from 24 Sep 2014 onward, covering various chemicals like imidacloprid, TCMTB, and others across multiple PTs
