Once the asbestos has been removed, or encapsulated on site when removal is impractical or impossible, it is taken away and disposed of safely, either direct by an approved carrier to a licensed toxic landfill site or for smaller quantities to our own licensed transfer station. Nothing and no-one leaves the 'dirty' area without going through complicated decontamination processes. For the waste itself, special bags are filled then sealed and they go through the controlled access facilities on their way out. A managed negative pressure system ensures that any asbestos fibres on the outside of the bags, or on the operators protective clothing, are sucked back into the contaminated area. As an extra precaution, before the final exit, a washing process is also gone through.
Nothing is left to chance.
