In the case of Union authorisations, the&nbsp;<strong>SPC has to be translated into all the official languages of the European Union<\/strong>&nbsp;before authorisation of the product can be granted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before 10 February 2024, SPCs had to be generated and submitted in the SPC Editor. Since that date a new tool called <strong>IUCLID<\/strong> has come into use. That shift from the SPC Editor to IUCLID has resulted in numerous changes and affects the file format and structure of the SPC, as well as the translation process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While IUCLID offers translation for the standard parts of the SPCs, the free texts need to be translated manually in the platform. That takes a lot of time and errors are highly likely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We spared neither cost nor effort to come up with a way to eliminate manual work and give our clients peace of mind regarding SPC translations. <\/strong><br>The resulting solution allows us to work using the&nbsp;files&nbsp;exported from the ECHA\u2019s IUCLID. Our clients receive the translations back <strong>in a format that they only need to import into and open in IUCLID<\/strong>. They do not need to copy-paste each entry manually, saving them considerable time and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That sounds excellent in theory, so how it is going in practice?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that IUCLID has been in use for over a month, we have counted the translated SPCs we have delivered in the new era: <strong>67 translated SPCs<\/strong> have been submitted to the authorities in the first month and it feels as if SPC Editor had never existed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need assistance with your SPCs or other<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurideastranslation.com\/sectors\/chemical-translation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> chemical documents<\/a>, feel free to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurideastranslation.com\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reach out<\/a> for a translation offer.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Companies wishing to apply for authorisation of biocidal products \u2013 on either a national or European level \u2013 need to submit a&nbsp;summary of product characteristics (SPC)&nbsp;to the European Chemical Agency (ECHA).
