Fibre Safe Ltd can assist ship owners and ports in managing their asbestos by conducting a comprehensive survey or re-inspection of their vessel.

Marine inspections require a different approach to that of buildings. Ships are often subjected to hostile environmental conditions such as shocks, vibration, rolling, pitching, swaying and slamming.

Marine asbestos services on ships can be particularly challenging due to the time constraints of the vessel being docked, as well as working alongside other trades and within confined spaces.

Dependent of the type of vessel, most will require heavy maintenance, repairs and upgrading throughout their life span which is when the asbestos tends to be disturbed.
