Wood borers in structural timber - European regulations for their control and can TTIP comply?

  • The control of wood boring beetles in structural timber is uniformly regulated in the European Union. Registration and authorization of wood preservatives for the European market has to follow a regulated procedure as described under the Biocidal Product Directive “EU 528/2012”. Non-biocidal measures of control such as by physical means are regulated individually by each member state on the national level. The Biocidal Product Directive demands voluminous data sets for product identity, environmental and health risk assessments, proof of efficacy, and management strategies to avoid the development of resistance, just to name the most important. With TTIP (Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership) on the horizon, it must be expected that wood preservatives coming from the North American Market to Europe and vice versa will mutually be recognized in the future, despite existing differences in registration requirements. The presentation will focus on major differences in standardThe control of wood boring beetles in structural timber is uniformly regulated in the European Union.

The presentation will focus on major differences in standard efficacy tests for wood preservatives with claims for beetle control, which, next to others, have to be passed before product placement on the respective market. Desirable needs for future harmonizing will be identified in order to overcome consumers distrust on each side of the partners.zeige mehrzeige weniger
