The sale and application of asbestos containing goods in the UK was ultimately prohibited in November 1999. Yet, due to the prevalent use of substances containing asbestos since the early 1900’s, it can be safely assumed that the majority of buildings constructed before 1985 probably have some quantity of asbestos in them. In fact you can only be certain that there is NO asbestos content if the building in question was built AFTER the year 2000.

Asbestos is a substance that occurs naturally, so some asbestos fibres are naturally released into the atmosphere. This implies that everybody is exposed at all times to some quantity of asbestos fibres. Consequently, the legislations involving the removal and disposal of asbestos are now incredibly strict.

Asbestos waste is categorised as special waste and is consequently subject to rigorous consignment note demands for generation and transport. Before removal from site, the waste ought to be double bagged and labelled to show the source of the waste before being consigned for final disposal to an authorized asbestos website. Now, the amount of sites enabled to dispose of asbestos are few and far between, which regrettably has resulted in high costs.
