Asbestos Abatement

ASBESTOS, that was widely used in various buildings is today, a banned material in many countries like the US, Europe and now in the Middle East as well. Studies have revealed that prolonged exposure to this material may cause asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma (cancer of the chest and stomach cavities).

 Since it was praised as the Miracle Mineral due to its acoustical, insulating and fire-resistant properties, it was widely used over the last century in commercial, industrial and residential buildings, but now, there are very strict guidelines regarding the removal and disposal of asbestos.

Asbestos is an excellent insulator that does not burn. Today we have realised the serious problems asbestos caused and how to deal with it and keep people safe from its devastating effects. Removal of Asbestos materials safely requires special training that EPSCO team is well versed in.
