This week’s Chemical Watch news podcast sees Europe correspondent Clelia Oziel, North America reporter Julia John and biocides editor Vanessa Zainzinger join Kate Lowe, global managing editor at Chemical Watch, to discuss the latest developments.
The agenda for this episode includes a look at the findings of a highly critical report from the European Commission on the implementation of the EU biocidal products Regulation (BPR).
We also hear about the US EPA’s proposal for a per- and polyfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS) reporting rule that would require producers and importers to supply extensive information on more than 1,300 of the substances used in the US over the last ten years.
