Asbestos Finds From Our Own Surveys

 

Asbestos Containing Materials

Some of the more unusual finds from our surveys appear on this page and we will make regular updates to the contents.

Most of the products featured on this page will be in resins and therefore of very low risk. We feature them here to demonstrate how widely used asbestos was.

Asbestos Resin Window Cill.

Any composite material present in a building constructed pre 1990 should be presumed to contain asbestos.

During one of our type 3 surveys in October 2004, this cill board was sampled and found to contain chrysotile (white) asbestos.

Being encapsulated in resin makes it virtually risk free.

 

Inside this box lived an old asbestos fire blanket. The date on the label says 1975.

The fire blanket had been removed, so we photographed the box for the web site.

We often find old, redundant incinerators in the WCs of old offices and factories.

The incinerator doors usually contain a very fibrous asbestos gasket and of course, they nearly always have an asbestos cement flue, as in this case.
