Identify asbestos with our asbestos tests for air and materials

Asbestos is used in a variety of different materials due to its advantageous physical properties such as resistance to heat, strength and insulating capabilities. Since 1999, the manufacture and use of asbestos have been banned in the UK because inhaling the fibres can lead to serious diseases like asbestosis and cancer. Hence, the majority of asbestos found in the air is dangerous. Asbestos can be released when "friable" (weak and easily crumbled) or during renovation or DIY work. With this in mind, we have developed the Asbestos Indoor Air Test so that you can know if the dust in your home contains asbestos fibres. The test is also ideal if you have undertaken reconstruction work or something similar without having checked the material in question beforehand.

Three easy steps are needed to complete the Asbestos test

Asbestos Test - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

WHEN SHOULD YOU TEST FOR ASBESTOS?
Asbestos-containing materials can turn DIY into a hazard. Private consumers should therefore test for asbestos fibres before carring out renovation work on the house. It is even more important for tradespeople to protect themselves with an asbestos test. If renovation work is undertaken on asbestos-containing building materials, there may be legal consequences.
