Despite being needed for the control of pests or harmful organisms, some of the biocidal active substances currently approved are problematic for human or animal health or the environment. More innovation to bring safer alternatives into the market is therefore essential, allowing for further restriction or ban to the use of the most hazardous biocidal active substances.Proposals should: • develop innovative and Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD[1]) bio-based substances…

Activities are expected to achieve TRL 4-5 by the end of the project - see General Annex B. Activities may start at any TRL.
