Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/711 of 10 April 2025 concerning the renewal of the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49755 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49754 as a feed additive for weaned piglets, laying hens, minor poultry species for laying and fattening, pigs for fattening of all Suidae species and turkeys for fattening, the authorisation of a preparation of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49755 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49754 as a feed additive for suckling piglets (holder of authorisation: AVEVE BV) and repealing Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1088/2011, (EU) No 989/2012 and (EU) No 1040/2013

Renewal of authorisation

Article 1

The authorisation of the preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’, is renewed for weaned piglets, laying hens and minor poultry species for laying and fattening, pigs for fattening of all Suidae species and turkeys for fattening, subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.

Authorisation

Article 2

The preparation specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category ‘zootechnical additives’ and to the functional group ‘digestibility enhancers’, is authorised as an additive in animal nutrition for suckling piglets, subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.

Repeal

Article 3

Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1088/2011, (EU) No 989/2012 and (EU) No 1040/2013 are repealed.

Transitional measures

Article 4

1.   The feed additive endo-1,4-beta-xylanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49755 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49754, as authorised by Implementing Regulations (EU) No 1088/2011, (EU) No 989/2012 and (EU) No 1040/2013, and premixtures containing that additive, which are intended for weaned piglets, laying hens, minor poultry species for laying and fattening, pigs for fattening of all Suidae species and turkeys for fattening and which are produced and labelled before 1 November 2025 in accordance with the rules applicable before 1 May 2025 may continue to be placed on the market and used until the stocks concerned are exhausted. 2.   Compound feed and feed materials containing the feed additive referred to in paragraph 1, which are intended for weaned piglets, laying hens, minor poultry species for laying and fattening, pigs for fattening of all Suidae species and turkeys for fattening, and which are produced and labelled before 1 May 2026 in accordance with the rules applicable before 1 May 2025 may continue to be placed on the market and used until the stocks concerned are exhausted.

Entry into force

Solid and liquid forms. Characterisation of the active substance Endo-1,4-beta-xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8) produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49755 and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.6) produced with Trichoderma reesei MUCL 49754 Analytical method  ( 3 ) For the determination of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase in the feed additive: — Colorimetric methods based on the formation of reducing sugars reacted with dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS). For the determination of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase and endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase in compound feed: — Colorimetric method measuring water soluble dye released by action of endo-1,4-beta-xylanase from dye cross-linked wheat arabinoxylan substrate; — Colorimetric method measuring water soluble dye released by action of endo-1,3(4)-beta-glucanase from dye cross-linked barley betaglucan substrate. Piglets (weaned and suckling) Pigs for fattening of all Suidae species Turkeys for fattening Laying hens and minor poultry species for laying — 4 000 XU 900 BGU — 1. In the directions for use of the additive and premixtures, the storage conditions and stability to heat treatment shall be indicated. 2. For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address the potential risks resulting from their use. Where those risks cannot be eliminated by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with personal eye (only for the powder formulation of the preparation formulated with calcium carbonate and wheat flour), breathing and skin protective equipment. 1 May 2035 Minor poultry species for fattening 3 000 XU 675 BGU ( 1 )   1 XU is the amount of enzyme which releases 1 μmol of reducing sugar per minute from xylan of oat spelt at pH 4,8 and 50 °C.
