It has been proven from countless scientific studies that breathing asbestos fibers can lead to an increased risk of lung cancer, mesothelioma and respiratory diseases. Exposure to airborne asbestos fibers increases the risks of developing these diseases. The amount and type of asbestos fibers inhaled also impacts occupants’ health risks. When materials that contain asbestos are disturbed, asbestos fibers can be released into the air. If inhaled by the building’s occupants they are then at risk for developing asbestos related diseases.

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral fiber mined from the Earth. In the past it was regularly added to building products to increase strength and corrosion resistance as well as to provide insulation and fire resistance.

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), “Check material regularly. If you suspect it may contain asbestos, don’t touch it, but look for signs of wear or damage such as tears, abrasions, or water damage. Damaged material may release asbestos fibers. This is particularly true if you often disturb it by hitting, rubbing, or handling it, or if it is exposed to extreme vibration or air flow.”

One of the largest asbestos testing laboratories is EMSL Analytical, Inc. They have been providing asbestos analyses since 1981 and currently operate over 30 laboratories across the United States and Canada. “There are countless homes and buildings all across the country that still have asbestos containing materials in them,” reported Joe Frasca, Senior Vice President at EMSL. “Air testing can help ensure occupants are not being exposed to deadly asbestos fibers and suspect materials can be quickly samples to determine if they contain asbestos.”
