Would Taiwan's environmental or health authorities assess the proposed antimicrobial use?

Taiwan's Environmental Agents Control Act, as amended on 7 December 2016, names its competent authority in Article 2 and defines environmental agents in Article 5.

Article 2 states: “‘Competent authority’ as referred to in this Act means the Environmental Protection Administration, Executive Yuan, at the central government level, the municipal government in special municipalities and the county or city government in counties or cities.” Article 5 states: “‘Environmental agents’ means the following types of chemical agents or microbial preparations used for environmental sanitation and pollution control”. The company does not say how that Act applies to any product. A charge is a physical property. It is not a substance or a mixture of substances. The company sets out its position under two bodies of law only, and neither of them is the law there.

Under United States law, NF Technical Products Inc. 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, C-POLAR Technologies, Inc. classifies the same filter as neither a biocidal product nor a treated article. Each statement records that it addresses that one question only. No authority has approved, registered, endorsed or cleared the filter; the company classifies its own article.

What an authority requires of a product placed on its market is decided under its own rules, by the party that places it there. Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format.

Would the proposed TFDA submission treat the product as a new medical device or a change to an existing registered device?

Can a Taiwan-facing claim rely on a mainland China document without a separate local basis?

Wording for a product in a market is agreed in writing, and nothing on this site authorises a claim anywhere.

The Terms of Use state: “Nothing on the Site authorizes anyone to manufacture, integrate, market, resell, or describe a product as C-POLAR-enabled. Nothing authorizes anyone to describe itself as a C-POLAR partner. Written permission is required.” They also state: “Do not use Site Content to select, design, manufacture, validate, or make claims for a finished product,” and: “Use evidence, specifications, instructions, and warnings specific to the actual finished product and use.” The About page states that development runs configuration by configuration, and that each partner controls what is said about the work.

A document issued for one market records what its issuer assessed, for the article named in it, and the substantiation a claim needs is decided under the rules of the market where the claim is made. Enquiries go to [email protected].
