Plant Protection Products

Meeting the requirements of the EU Plant Protection Products Regulation.

With new procedural, criteria, and data requirements, the EU Plant Protection Product Regulation is now more complex than ever. Exponent consultants have worked with several repeat, satisfied clients — from small- to medium-sized companies — helping them with preparation and submission of active substance and product dossiers. For example, in the last two years, we have prepared 20 dossiers for active substances and more than 50 dossiers for products, including the risk assessments.

Our team of scientists has extensive experience working in a variety of regulatory disciplines with a variety of regulatory authorities, contract research organizations, agrochemical companies, and other consultancies. This multidisciplinary work has given our team an excellent mix of skills and perspectives, ensuring that our insights lead to scientific and technical information presented in the correct regulatory context.
