    About Asbestos Roof Insulation

    About Asbestos Roof Insulation

    Similar to asbestos loft insulation and commonly used as a blanket term to refer to a number of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), namely asbestos insulation board (AIB), asbestos roof insulation can be found in commercial, domestic and industrial buildings. The particular type of asbestos insulation used for roofs was loose-fill asbestos insulation.

    One of the most dangerous types of asbestos insulation, loose-fill asbestos insulation was designed to either be poured or blown into roof voids. If disturbed, loose-fill asbestos insulation will readily release toxic fibres into the air – posing very serious health risks to inhabitants and users of the building. If you suspect that this may be present within your property, or any other roof-related ACMs such as asbestos soffits or asbestos in felt, it is vital that you appoint the help of professionals to test and identify any ACMs present on your premises.

    Dangers of Asbestos Roof Insulation

    How Dangerous is Asbestos Roof Insulation?

    Asbestos roof insulation is extremely fibrous and contains 100% pure asbestos. If these fibres are inhaled, they can accumulate in the lungs causing inflammation and scarring. This can lead to very serious diseases, including mesothelioma and lung cancer, as the body cannot break down or expel asbestos fibres. 

    Due to the many different types of asbestos insulation products, it can be difficult to detect with an untrained eye. This is where our licensed asbestos removal specialists come in – our highly experienced, professional and reliable team can inspect, remediate or remove the ACMs, in accordance with ARCA, ACAD and HSE regulations, before the fibres are unknowingly disturbed or exposed.
