Kenya’s PCPB Introduces New CRM Requirement for Pest Control Product Registration
The Pest Control Products Board (PCPB) of Kenya has introduced a new requirement for the submission of Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) as part of the pest control product registration procedure. Effective immediately, CRMs submitted for registration must be sourced from manufacturers certified by ISO/IEC 17034. This international standard ensures the highest quality and reliability of reference materials, supporting accurate and consistent testing findings.
Labelling Requirements for CRMs
To ensure compliance, all submitted CRMs must be clearly labelled with the following information:
-
CAS Number
-
Expiry Date
-
Lot Number
-
Material Name (Active Ingredient)
-
% Purity
-
Storage Conditions
Certificate of Analysis Requirement
In addition, each CRM must be accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) outlining its requirements, uncertainty, intended application, and the matching analytical procedure. This new requirement applies to initial registrations and future applications for label extensions and parallel registrations.
By adhering to this standard, the authority hopes to maintain the highest degree of quality assurance and compliance with industry standards.
