The recent decisions applicable to methylisothiazolinone (MIT) in European consumer applications are reshaping preservation strategies across the home care sector. Driven by evolving regulatory expectations, including restrictions under the European Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) and increasing scrutiny of sensitizing substances, formulators and compliance teams are facing growing pressure to reformulate while maintaining product safety, performance, and shelf life.
