As COVID-19 continues to spread globally, a wide variety of disinfection, hygiene, and epidemic prevention products are available on the market. Wipes are widely favored by consumers because they are convenient to carry and easy to use. Wipes are divided into ordinary wipes and disinfecting/sterilizing wipes. Ordinary wipes have no sterilizing effect and only serve a cleaning function; disinfecting/sterilizing wipes provide sterilization and disinfection effects
According to the database of a US health organization, disinfecting/sterilizing wipes may cause three types of acute health effects. The first is eye contact, which may cause irritation. If the product gets into the eyes, rinse with plenty of clean water. If irritation persists, seek medical attention immediately. The second is skin contact. Prolonged skin contact may cause mild irritation, and the affected area should be thoroughly washed with soap and water. The last is ingestion. In fact, products from most regular manufacturers are non-toxic if ingested. Although ingestion, inhalation, or contact with most chemicals may cause some reaction, many companies are now producing organic or green cleaning products that contain only a small amount of chemicals.
The US has one of the strictest regulatory systems in the world for food and medical hygiene products. If disinfecting wipes are intended to enter the US market for sale, EPA registration must be completed
EPA is the abbreviation for the Environmental Protection Agency. According to the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), wipes used for disinfecting object surfaces are classified as a type of disinfectant and fall under chemical disinfectant products. They must be registered according to the registration process for chemical disinfectant products and are subject to EPA regulation.

EPA Registration Process for Disinfecting/Sterilizing Wipes
1.Company number registration
A unique identifier assigned to a company that wishes to register pesticide products with the US EPA
2.Establishment number registration
Any establishment that produces pesticide products, active ingredients, or devices must register
3.Pesticide registration
Product registration is the most important and most complex step in the entire registration process. EPA needs to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the product’s ingredients, uses, and other aspects. Therefore, the applicant must submit a series of data to EPA, including residue, toxicology, efficacy, physical and chemical, exposure-related, and environmental fate data, etc., to demonstrate the product's safety
4.Pesticide registration from states
Before pesticide products are placed on a state market, state registration must be completed. Federal registration must be completed before state registration can proceed
EPA registration for disinfectant products is mainly divided into three types: "Me too" product registration, New active ingredient registration, and New use registration. Each registration type is further divided into many scenarios. The data requirements, registration fees, and work cycles vary significantly depending on the registration type and specific scenario
