Cleaning Up From 2020: Guidance for Disinfectant, Germ and Virus Killing Claims
Register Here
COVID-19 has brought a proliferation of products claiming to kill or otherwise inhibit viruses, bacteria and other germs. These products, before they can be legally sold, are heavily regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and sometimes both. Major enforcement actions are pending against companies making illegal claims or selling unregistered products. Meanwhile, the FTC regulates advertising of many sanitizing products and the agency has pursued enforcement on companies that overstate their products’ germ-killing performance.Please join us for a webinar covering the basics of germ killing and related product claims.
Discussion topics include:
- The regulatory landscape: Who regulates what – EPA, FDA and FTC jurisdiction and requirements
- What can you say and when can you say it
- Potential liability and enforcement considerations
- What to do if you receive a warning letter or other enforcement action
