OVERVIEW BACKGROUND
The Regulations for the Prohibition of the Use, Manufacturing, Import, and Export of Asbestos and Asbestos Containing Materials, which form part of the Environment Conservation Act of 1989, was promulgated on 28 March 2008.
Asbestos is a harmful material that can cause serious health problems if it is inhaled. Inhalation of asbestos fibers can lead to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and other respiratory illnesses. Therefore, removing asbestos roofs is important for ensuring the safety and health of people who work or live in buildings that contain this material.
Asbestos was widely used in construction materials, including roofing before its dangers were fully understood. As a result, many older buildings still have asbestos-containing roofs. If the roof is old, damaged, deteriorating, or needs to be replaced for any reason, it is important to remove the asbestos-containing materials to prevent the release of asbestos fibers into the air.
Removing an asbestos roof can only be done by the accredited asbestos contractor in accordance with the requirements of the Asbestos Abatement Regulations 2020 of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (No 85 of 1993) and by professionals who have the proper training, equipment, and experience to safely handle and dispose of the asbestos-containing material. The process of removing asbestos roofs can be complex and involves strict safety protocols to protect workers and the environment.
Future Goal
Our goal is to continue providing top-notch asbestos abatement and removal services while expanding our offerings to new and existing clients. We also aim to stay up-to-date with the latest industry innovations and regulations, ensuring that we remain a leading asbestos contractor in the years to come.
