PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Asbestos cannot be identified by sight alone. If you are planning on doing any renovations or building work (whether commercially or in your home), it is, therefore, advisable to have a sample of the material which will be worked on, tested. This test uses the latest scientific methods, including SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and tests for the presence of asbestos as well as artificial mineral fibres, which also pose an increased health risk.
Recommended:
If you are planning a renovation or building work.

Asbestos Test - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
WHEN SHOULD YOU TEST FOR ASBESTOS?
Asbestos-containing materials can turn DIY into a hazard. Private consumers should therefore test for asbestos fibres before carring out renovation work on the house. It is even more important for tradespeople to protect themselves with an asbestos test. If renovation work is undertaken on asbestos-containing building materials, there may be legal consequences.
WHAT IS THE ASBESTOS INDOOR AIR TEST FOR DUST SAMPLES?
Our Asbestos Air Test gives you a quick overview and fast assurance. Simply take a dust sample with a piece of tape, which can be done using the detailled instructions included. The particles which stick to the tape will then be examined for asbestos fibres in a laboratory.
WHAT IS THE ASBESTOS MATERIAL TEST FOR STANDARD MATERIALS?
You can test all kinds of materials for asbestos using our Asbestos Material Test. This test is ideal for both private and commercial use. You don't need any specialist knowledge when selecting the material - simply send us your sample and our experts will determine what kind of analysis the required detection limit delivers. Our expert laboratory analyses your sample using the latest SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) technology. Regardless of the asbestos sample you send in, the lab will test it to a detection limit of between 1% and 0.1%.
WHAT IS THE ASBESTOS MATERIAL TEST FOR SPECIAL MATERIALS?
The Asbestos Test for Special Materials analyses your samples for man-made mineral fibres such as slag wool, basalt wool, stone wool and glass wool, as well as for asbestos-containing fibres in materials like Artex, to a detection limit of as low as 0.001%.
