Why Asbestos Removal is Essential for Your Business

Asbestos is a hazardous material that was commonly used in building materials for its durability and heat resistance. However, when asbestos fibers are disturbed, they can be released into the air, posing serious health risks to anyone exposed. Prolonged asbestos exposure can lead to severe illnesses, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

In Ottawa, many commercial properties—particularly older buildings—still contain asbestos in materials like insulation, floor tiles, and boiler systems. It is crucial to have a certified asbestos removal company handle the identification, removal, and disposal of asbestos to protect both employees and customers.

Common Questions About Asbestos Removal in Ottawa

What is Asbestos?

Asbestos is a group of natural silicate minerals composed of varying concentrations of tremolite, actinolite, anthophyllite, chrysotile, amosite and crocidolite. These bundles of fibers (up to 700 times smaller than a human hair) can be separated into thin, durable threads and used primarily for insulation until the late 1970s/early 1980s. Most commonly used types of asbestos are Chrysotile (white) and Amosite (brown / off-white). Asbestos is considered a form of hazardous waste.

Is it safe to remove asbestos without professional help?

No, it is highly dangerous to attempt asbestos removal without professional assistance. Exposure to airborne asbestos fibers can lead to serious health conditions, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. Only a certified company like Eco Metal Recycling can ensure safe and compliant removal.
