Asbestos exposure still takes the lives of thousands of workers every year, which in many countries is higher than the road toll. Asbestos can be found in the raw materials used in many commercial or residential buildings that were built or restored before the year 2000. When these asbestos-containing materials are touched or moved they release fibers into the air that when inhaled can cause serious illness or death. Asbestos testing and removal is a highly specialized service that should always be carried out by well-equipped and trained contractors that have a strong understanding of the dangers of asbestos exposure.

Asbestos-related diseases following asbestos exposure including lung cancer, pleural thickening, and asbestosis often take years to develop, and when diagnosed can be too late to treat. Asbestos testing and removal is not something that should be handled by inexperienced site workers without the correct equipment and training.
