The European Commission published on 26th February 2021 the implementing regulations 2021/364 and 2021/365 approving active chlorine. For Product Types (PT) 2, 3, 4, and 5 active chlorine, both electrolytically generated in situ and released from hypochlorous acid for later use, will officially be approved on July, 01 2022. For PT1 the approval date was July, 01 2021. Nevertheless, corresponding applications for authorization of disinfectants of human skin could still be submitted.
For all these types of disinfectant products, it will be necessary to submit an application for authorization before the approval date in order to market these products.

Active   can be found in water treatments, pool hygiene, sanitation products or just general hygiene. Active chlorine is the active form of chlorine, effective against bacteria, viruses, and algae.
