What is Asbestos?

Asbestos consists of one or more of a group of six types of naturally occurring minerals made up of fine, durable fibres which are resistant to heat, fire, and water and many other chemicals.

Asbestos used to be regarded as a wonderful building material and was widely used for a variety of purposes in building construction from the 1950s to the mid-1980s. Any residential, commercial or public building built before 1990 may contain asbestos. Asbestos was extensively used for roofing, flooring, insulation, steam pipes, boilers, furnace ducts, soundproofing, decoration, patching mixed in paints and much more.

Asbestos has been banned for use in construction for many years and it is universally accepted that asbestos is carcinogenic. Exposure to it causes asbestosis and mesothelioma – fatal cancers which damage the linings of the lungs along with a host of other fatal, lung-related medical conditions.

By law, all commercial buildings must have an audit/inspection and a register of any asbestos in the building maintained.
