Is Asbestos Hazardous?
Asbestos is the name of a group of fibrous silicate materials occurring naturally in the environment. This material was widely used between the 1950s and 1980s in the manufacture of building materials.
Asbestos containing materials become hazardous when they are disturbed and release fibres into the atmosphere.
Types of asbestos
There are three types of asbestos which are most commonly found in ACMs.
Crocidolite
(blue asbestos)
Amosite
(brown asbestos)
Chrysolite
(white asbestos)
Fatal Diseases
When asbestos is damaged, fibres are released, and once inhaled, they can potentially cause a number of serious and fatal diseases such as asbestosis and cancer.
Asbestos Health Risks
Because of these health risks, asbestos is no longer used as a building material. This is the reason for the UK wide ban in 1999. However, buildings constructed before the year 2000 may still have asbestos in them and despite the fact that asbestos was banned from use in the UK in 1999, it is still fairly commonly found in homes and places of work across Liverpool.
Examples of more commonly known ACMs where asbestos fibres can be found in your home or business premises include: roofing, garages, flooring, tiles, insulation for heating pipes, and loft insulation, loose lagging, ceiling panels, electrical insulation.
