WHAT IS ASBESTOS – DOES COLOUR MATTER ? – WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON ASBESTOS CONTAINING MATERIALS?

The term asbestos describes six naturally occurring fibrous minerals found in certain types of rock formations.
Of that general group the asbestos minerals: Chrysotile (white), Amosite (brown) and Crocidolite (blue) were used in over 3000 materials and products.
White asbestos killed Bernie… white, brown or blue. There is no safe level of exposure to asbestos!
