Fake Body in Coffin Is Part of a Asbestos Abatement Protest
An asbestos abatement firm in New York staged a rather macabre protest in New York this month – placing a casket on the pavement outside their firm. Over the first few weeks, the coffin was closed due to rain, but as soon as the weather improved, the casket was opened to reveal a fake body lying in hard hat and gas mask.
It has been met with mixed reviews with some people disgusted by it and some others have found the display thought provoking.

Removing Asbestos Did Not Contribute to Employer’s Death Says High Court Judge
A high court ruling is disputing the death of a long term, heavy smoker who is now suspected to have died from cigarettes rather than asbestos exposure as first suspected.
This means that the employers of Paul Cotton who died in 2002, will not have to pay the compensation that was mooted in the first courtcase. However, the judge did find the employers guilty of negligence and breached their duty of care. Cotton was responsible for removing asbestos when he worked for South Australian Engineering and Water Supply Department and Millennium Inorganic Chemicals Ltd.

Asbestos Killed Steve McQueen
Just read that one of favourite actors, Steve McQueen, was actually diagnosed with the asbestos disease mesothelioma, resulting in his early death. He worked in ship yards when he was younger and was exposed to asbestos whilst working there.

Asbestos Removal Cheshire
We were sorting an asbestos removal Cheshire job at the beginning of this week, when the customer approached us asking if we sold any asbestos sheets to seal a gap in the garage roof! We politely informed him that asbestos has been banned in the UK in every form since 1999. Not only would it be illegal, it would be impossible to get hold of!

Asbestos Removal
Back in 1950s comic world, there was one woman who was completely against asbestos removal.
Her name?
Asbestos Lady.
Not exactly as catchy as Spiderman or the Incredible Hulk, but we appreciate the effort.
Basically, Asbestos Lady was fireproof and so flame throwing was her forte. That’s about it. OK, we admit, it was a bit of a lousy idea and we doubt she’s be allowed in modern comics made of such a deadly material. But, ultimately, we quite like your naffness, Asbestos Lady!

Asbestos Removal Nottingham
My colleague travelled over to carry out an asbestos removal Nottingham job. The asbestos had been dumped in a yard by someone in the middle of the night. The asbestos hadn’t been bagged and was cracked. In this state, asbestos can be an issue as cracked panels means that the asbestos fibres become airborne and then are breathed in causing irreparable damage. He isolated the spot, doused the panels in water (this keeps the fibres down) and double bagged the panels and took them away in his van. 
It was an easy job, but it’s a shame that the yard owners had to take responsibility of the person who dumped it there in the first place.

Asbestos Removal Surrey
One of our lads was on an asbestos removal Surrey job last week – he was there to remove an asbestos flue from an old school kitchen. He then realised that the tank connected to it was also asbestos and it was also cracked. Our guy told the authorities and quickly removed and disposed of it as well as the flue.
It’s always good to keep an eye out. If there’s asbestos in one part, chances are that the stuff will make an appearance elsewhere.
