Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was widely used in the construction industry for its heat-resistant and insulating qualities. While these properties made asbestos popular for many applications, it was eventually discovered that prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to a range of serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.

Today, asbestos is recognized as a hazardous material that poses a significant risk to human health and the environment when not handled properly. That is why asbestos removal and disposal must be carried out by certified professionals who have the necessary knowledge, equipment, and skills to ensure safe and compliant removal and disposal.
