If you place biocidal products on the EU market — disinfectants, preservatives, pest control, antifouling — you work under the Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, EU 528/2012). That means structured substance and efficacy data in IUCLID, chemical safety assessments in CHESAR, and submissions through R4BP 3. The review programme runs in waves, and each active substance approval or product authorisation has its own deadline.
Running the tooling for that in-house is a recurring distraction. 4chems.com hosts it for you.
Built for the BPR workflow
- IUCLID, ready for biocides. Maintain active substance and biocidal product dossiers in the format ECHA and national authorities expect — always on the current IUCLID release.
- CHESAR for safety assessment. Run exposure and risk assessments and generate the documentation your BPR dossier needs, tightly integrated with your IUCLID data. See CHESAR cloud hosting.
- Keep pace with review waves. BPR active substance evaluations land on rolling deadlines. Because your environment tracks the ECHA release cycle, you are never blocked by an outdated tool right before a submission.
- QSAR Toolbox to fill data gaps. Use QSAR predictions to support endpoints and reduce animal testing where read-across or modelling is accepted.
Why hosted beats self-hosted for biocides
- No installation or maintenance — no Java, database, or server upkeep on your side.
- Always compliant format — updated within days of each ECHA release.
- EU-based and GDPR-compliant — ISO 27001-certified data centres, with full data ownership and export rights retained by you.
- Predictable subscription cost — scale users and storage as your portfolio grows.
Watch the regulatory calendar
New CLP hazard classes apply from 2026 and can change how your biocidal actives are classified and labelled — read what CLP 2026 means for your IUCLID dossiers. With managed hosting, the updated classification fields are simply there when you need them.
