Asbestos is a very dangerous product that should always be handled with care. History shows the exploitation and misuse of asbestos and asbestos containing materials. As our houses, buildings and construction sites get older, the materials are beginning to wear. We are now facing an epidemic of having to safely remove asbestos without causing further harm to human health.
Asbestos should be taken very seriously, with the EPA of Australia strongly advising against handling asbestos without the relevant training. A licensed Sydney asbestos removal company should always be called to have any suspected materials tested, removed and disposed of.

We also strongly believe in the power of awareness. We've created this blog to educate on all things asbestos and hazardous materials. We'd love if you could check out our latest posts on tips, tricks and asbestos news. If you have any queries, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
Our asbestos technicians have a wealth of knowledge on the deadly fibers of asbestos and would love to share some information with you.
