Asbestos Training

Asbestos Training

Asbestos annually kills approximately 4,000 people, so the correct training is vital. It is a fibrous material widely used in the building industry since the 1950's. Asbestos can be found in pipe lagging, ceilings, roofing.

It is not always obvious that a material contains asbestos and many buildings may not have an asbestos register identifying where know asbestos is located.
