Asbestos Management and Disposal

Many industries and facilities face the challenge of asbestos disposal and management. Asbestos is a hazardous material with extremely fine fibers and can remain suspended in air for hours.  If handled without caution, it may cause serious chronic health problems such as asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma.

The diseases cause long term serious social, economic and emotional problems. When left intact and undisturbed, asbestos materials do not pose a health risk. It becomes a problem when, due to damage, disturbance, or deterioration over time, the material releases Fibers into the air.  Exposure to air containing the fibers increases the risk of inhaling the fibers and developing the associated diseases.

Whether you are involved in construction, demolition or managing compliance, EMC can bring a wealth of project-based experience and technical expertise to assist in the management of the risks from asbestos.
