An enforced gap analysis of technical documentation may show that current plastic resin grades or masterbatches do not have adequate change control, and there are insufficient change agreements with suppliers
For higher risk IVD, the gap analysis may also reveal that current resin grades or masterbatches don’t have sufficient regulatory assumptions, e.g., they are not verified for elemental impurities (ICH Q3D)

The masterbatches contain “low concern” substances which are effective against rats and termites and compliant with the BPR.
Only authorized masterbatches for the purpose of conferring a biocidal property to an article can be used inside the European Union.
Reference Product Name Carrier CC10087477BG 87477 EVA Anti-Rat Masterbatch EVA CC10107079BG 107079 EVA Anti-Termite Masterbatch EVA CC10125842BG 5842 EVA Multi-Repel Masterbatch EVA VALUE SOLUTION The European Union adopted Guidelines in 2015 establishing that masterbatches with biocidal function needed to be authorized for use in European Union.1 As such, masterbatch products containing aversive or repellent substances are considered as a biocidal product.2 Indeed, deterring harmful organisms is a biocidal function.
