The Asbestos Encapsulation Process
Asbestos encapsulation is one of the methods employed in asbestos management plans to control the release of asbestos fibres in commercial buildings. At AES, you can trust our trained professionals with expertise in asbestos management and encapsulation, ensuring proper implementation and adherence to
relevant regulations and guidelines. Our process typically involves the following steps:
1. Assessment
We conduct a thorough inspection and assessment of the ACMs in the building to determine their condition, location, and potential for fibre release.
2. Preparation
We prepare the encapsulation area by cleaning and removing loose debris or dust.
3. Encapsulant Application
We implement a proven encapsulation method, which involves applying a specialised encapsulant to the surface of the ACMs using spraying, brushing, or trowelling techniques. The encapsulant forms a durable barrier that binds the asbestos fibres together and prevents their release into the air.
4. Monitoring and Maintenance
Regular monitoring and maintenance are essential to ensure the integrity of the encapsulated surfaces. We conduct periodic inspections to check for any signs of damage, deterioration, or wear and tear. If issues arise, repairs or reapplication of the encapsulant may be necessary.
Safe, Cost-Effective, & Minimally Disruptive
Commercial asbestos encapsulation is often the preferred method for dealing with asbestos in established buildings. The method is safe, cost-effective, and minimally disruptive, all while minimising the risk of asbestos disturbance. It is important to note that we only recommend asbestos encapsulation for ACMs that are in good condition and can be effectively sealed, as it reduces the risk of fibre release without the need for complete removal.
Whether dealing with ACMs in roofs or pipe insulation, asbestos encapsulation provides a safer and cost-effective alternative that lasts decades.
