Does a Philippine household-product classification differ from a medical-device classification for the proposed use?

The company publishes no position under Philippine law, and the label for the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter states that the filter is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease.

The company sets out its position under United States law and under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012, and under no other country's law. Under United States law the company classifies the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter as a device under Section 2(h) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, 7 U.S.C. § 136(h), and 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(a). Under Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 the company classifies the filter as neither a biocidal product nor a treated article. No authority has approved, registered, cleared or endorsed the filter. The company classifies its own article. The Terms of Use state that, as of their effective date, the Water, Textiles, Food packaging, and Medical devices chapters describe Research Applications, and that they do not describe finished products currently available from C-POLAR for those uses. How a product is classified in that market is a question for that market's authority and for the party that places the product on it.
