Recognising non-friable asbestos
Typically, non-friable asbestos is difficult to crumble. The fibres are usually held together by a bonding agent such as resin, or cement. Non-friable asbestos is very common in outside cladding on older houses, and it’s generally known to be safe if it sits undisturbed. However, it’s still very easy to damage, and any damage is likely to cause the release of asbestos fibres into the air.
If there is any doubt about it being non-friable, it should be treated as friable. It’s not worth the risk. so, call us today on 0800 110 182
Recognising friable asbestos
Friable asbestos is asbestos that can easily be crumbled or broken – releasing dangerous asbestos fibres with as little as a gust of wind. This commonly happens if asbestos products have been worn down, weathered, or the non-friable bonding agent has deteriorated.
