Authorisation consortia

Through an efficient cooperation system, manufacturers and importers of feed additives were offered the opportunity to participate in FEFANA Consortia and jointly prepare applications for re-authorisation of additives of their interest.

Via the Consortia, the operators shared data and costs for preparing their applications for re-authorisation of additives (e.g. reference samples, technical dossier) to fulfil the legislative requirements for the marketing and safe use of feed additives.

Consortia have also been formed for authorisation – as per Article 4 of the Feed Additive Regulation – for instance for the establishment of a new functional group of technological feed additives, the ’Hygiene Condition Enhancers’. Overall, FEFANA was responsible for the submission.
