SPC - Summary of the biocidal product characteristics

In 2014, an online application called SPC Editor was prepared by ECHA to allow industry and authority users to create and work on SPC for single products and product families.

Since February 2024, the SPC Editor was discontinued and replaced with SPC in IUCLID. After this users must use IUCLID to prepare their SPCs.
