Asbestos is a toxic mineral that is used in building materials that has been banned by more than 50 countries.

Currently, the United States isn’t one of them. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, more than 2.3 million pounds came into the United States from Brazil. It was stated that based on current trends, the consumption of asbestos by the United States is likely to remain near the 1,000 ton level.

Although asbestos at its height was used during the industrial revolution in the United States, it is still being used widely today. Contact us today for asbestos removal in the NY Tri State Area for your home or commercial property that you suspect may contain asbestos.
