🇬🇧 English

This decision allows Hungary to keep permitting professional users to place Biobor JF on the market and use it for antimicrobial treatment of aircraft fuel tanks and fuel systems. The product is used to control bacteria, mould and yeast that can grow where water and fuel meet inside aircraft systems. The practical effect is limited but important for aviation operators and maintenance providers in Hungary. It keeps a temporary safety-related tool available while the normal EU biocidal product approval process remains unresolved for the active substance used in this product.
