About Asbestos

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral found in rocks and soil all around the world. It has been mined for over 4,000 years and has been used extensively in construction, insulation, fireproofing and other industries due to its heat-resistant properties.

However, we now know that asbestos is a carcinogen, meaning it can cause cancer and other health problems if inhaled. When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, tiny fibers are released into the air, which can be breathed in and cause damage to the lungs over time.

Asbestos Handling and Disposing

If you have asbestos-containing materials in your home or business, you must handle and dispose of them properly to avoid any health risks to yourself or others. The two main ways of disposing of asbestos are waste and recycling.

Recycling Asbestos

Recycling asbestos involves taking the asbestos-containing materials and transforming them into new materials for use. This is often more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than disposal.

Disposing Asbestos Waste

Asbestos waste includes any materials containing asbestos that cannot be recycled, and therefore must be legally disposed of. This includes asbestos cement, pipes, and insulation.

Asbestos Waste 1999

The Asbestos Waste 1999 regulations set out the legal requirements for the disposal of asbestos waste in the UK, and include guidelines on transportation, storage and disposal.

Asbestos Cement

Asbestos cement refers to a group of materials made from a mixture of asbestos fibers and cement. These materials were commonly used in the construction of buildings and structures throughout the UK until 1999.

Hazardous Special Waste

Asbestos waste is classified as hazardous special waste, and must be disposed of at a licensed disposal site. This is to ensure that the waste is disposed of safely and in compliance with regulations.

Special Waste
