How to select enviromential disinfectants conform with EN standards (related to disininfection)

[Sony SO]

Hi,

EN standards related to disinfection consist of at least 9 standards, and I have no idea for how to select enviromential disinfectants comply with EN standards, which standards are required.

And if you know which guidelines are related to this issue, would you please send information to me.

Regards,
