ASBESTOS…

What you should know

“Asbestos was a popular building material in Australia for both residential and commercial construction until the late 1980s. Asbestos containing materials were also in high demand for renovations, maintenance and repairs, until the Australian Government enforced a complete ban in 2003.”

WHERE ASBESTOS CAN BE FOUND?

“Asbestos has been used in over 3,000 different products and a lot of these products have been used to build houses.

Approximately one third of all homes in Australia contain asbestos products.

If your house was built before 1990, it is likely to contain some asbestos-containing materials, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom areas.

There are many other places in the home where asbestos-containing materials can be found including (but not limited to):

  • roofing and gutters
  • gables and eaves
  • downpipes
  • walls and ceilings
  • vinyl, carpet and tile underlay
  • lining behind wall tiles
  • imitation brick cladding
  • fencing
  • splashbacks in wet areas
  • electrical meter backing boards
  • telecommunications pits
  • window putty
  • expansion joints
  • packing under beams
  • concrete formwork
  • outbuildings

Getting a sample tested is the only way to find out and be certain if something contains asbestos.”

What is Asbestos?

“Asbestos is the generic term for a number of fibrous silicate minerals. Products made from asbestos cement – a bonded asbestos material – include fibro sheeting (flat and profiled) guttering and downpipes, as well as other pipes for water, drainage or flues, corrugated roofing sheets, roofing shingles and guttering.

Asbestos is a type of building material used in the building industry between the 1940s and late 1980s.

The manufacture and use of asbestos products was banned nationally from 31 December 2003. “

https://www.asbestos.qld.gov.au

Friable & Non Friable Asbestos

Asbestos-containing materials fall into two broad categories: friable and non-friable (also known as bonded).

  • “‘Friable’ is used to refer to asbestos-containing materials that can be easily reduced to powder when crushed by hand, when dry.”

  • “‘Non-friable’, or bonded asbestos is used to refer to asbestos-containing materials in which the asbestos is firmly bound in the matrix of the material. These materials are unlikely to release measurable levels of asbestos fibre into the airborne environment if they are left undisturbed.”
