ASBESTOS

Asbestos, a group of naturally occurring minerals with thin fibrous crystals, was once widely used in construction and manufacturing due to its durability and heat-resistant properties, but is now highly regulated due to its link to severe health issues, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. Asbestos abatement, safely removing or encapsulating asbestos-containing materials, is crucial to protect human health, and proper disposal involves strict adherence to regulations, specialized packaging, and licensed transportation to designated landfills. Trained professionals like those at Krystal Clean Restoration, who are licensed, insured, and experienced in asbestos handling, personal protective equipment, and safety protocols, are essential for a safe and successful asbestos removal experience, minimizing exposure risks and ensuring a healthier environment.
