Whereas:
(1) On 12 April 2018, Lhoist submitted an application to the European Chemicals Agency (‘the Agency’) in accordance with Article 43(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 and Article 4 of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013(2) for Union authorisation of the same single biocidal product, as referred to in Article 1 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013, named ‘CaO PT02-PT03’, of product-types 2 and 3, as described in Annex V to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012. The application was recorded under case number BC-TT038696-96 in the Register for Biocidal Products. The application also indicated the case number of the related reference single biocidal product ‘EuLA oxi-lime 23’ later authorised by Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/2703(3), recorded in that register under case number BC-VJ038509-19.
(2) The single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ contains calcium oxide / lime/ burnt lime / quicklime as the active substance, included in the Union list of approved active substances referred to in Article 9(2) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 for product-types 2 and 3.
(3) On 20 September 2022, the Agency submitted to the Commission its opinion(4) and the draft summary of the biocidal product characteristics (‘SPC’) of ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ in accordance with Article 6 of Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013.

(2) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 414/2013 of 6 May 2013 specifying a procedure for the authorisation of same biocidal products in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 125,
7.5.2013, p. 4, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2013/414/oj).
(3) Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2023/2703 of 4 December 2023 granting a Union authorisation for the single biocidal product ‘EuLA oxi-lime 23’ in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L, 2023/2703, 5.12.2023, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2023/2703/oj).
(4) European Chemicals Agency opinion of 20 September 2022 on the Union authorisation of the same single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’, https://echa.europa.eu/opinions-on-union-authorisation.
ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg_impl/2024/1491/oj 1/19EN OJ L, 30.5.2024
(4) In its opinion, the Agency concludes that the proposed differences between the single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ and the related reference single biocidal product ‘EuLA oxi-lime 23’ are limited to information which can be the subject of an administrative change in accordance with Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 354/2013(5), and that based on the assessment of the related reference single biocidal product ‘EuLA oxi-lime 23’ and subject to compliance with the draft SPC, the same single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ meets the conditions laid down in Article 19(1) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(5) On 26 January 2024, the Agency transmitted to the Commission the revised draft SPCs of ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ in all the official languages of the Union in accordance with Article 44(4) of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
(6) The Commission concurs with the opinion of the Agency and considers it therefore appropriate to grant a Union authorisation for the same single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’.
(7) The expiry date of this authorisation is aligned to the expiry date of the authorisation of the related reference single biocidal product ‘EuLA oxi-lime 23’.
(8) The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on Biocidal Products,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1 A Union authorisation with authorisation number EU-0029493-0000 is hereby granted to Lhoist for the making available on the market and use of the same single biocidal product ‘CaO PT02-PT03’ in accordance with the summary of the biocidal product characteristics set out in the Annex.
The Union authorisation is valid from 19 June 2024until 30 November 2033.
Article 2 This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
