Asbestos consultancy & management We’ve built our business on our ability to identify, manage and remove instances of asbestos from buildings that were constructed using this known carcinogen, which is the single greatest cause of work-related deaths in the UK. Asbestos was banned completely in the UK in 1999 – but it’s still present in many structures that were created in the mid to late 20th century and can present a significant health hazard if it is disturbed. So much so, that anyone responsible for a non-domestic property and its inhabitants – aka, the duty holder – is required to abide by the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, which list the steps that must be taken by law to minimise asbestos-related risk. As an asbestos client, you will also receive access to your very own customer portal, where you can view your vital compliance-related information and access training certificates, site documents, and more.. Though strides have been taken to successfully find and dispose of asbestos in recent years, hundreds of thousands of properties are thought to still contain the substance. There’s still a lot of work to be done, and Environtec has been, and continues to, lead the way in this space. Our comprehensive asbestos solutions span every aspect of the consultation, planning, management and removal process. Our asbestos testing and inspection services are UKAS accredited, which ensures they conform to ISO/ IEC17020:2012.
