CEN/TC 216/WG 5
Strategy Group

To establish cross-working group standards and guidance with regard to the standards developed within CEN/TC 216, especially the regular updating of EN 14885 “Application of European Standards for chemical disinfectants and antiseptics” and EN 12353 “Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics — Preservation of test organisms used for the determination of bactericidal (including Legionella), mycobactericidal, sporicidal, fungicidal and virucidal (including bacteriophages) activity”. This group will also prepare information papers on topics related to the work of CEN/TC 216 and proposals for the strategic development of this TC including the scientific evidence for the use of CEN/TC 216 standards. All documents to be prepared should take into account the relevant European legislation. This group will work towards harmonisation between EN 14885 and legislative guidance (e. g. ECHA BPR efficacy guidance) on a scientific basis.
