BIG BAG HOMOLOGATED FOR ASBESTOS
What is asbestos and why it is dangerous?
Asbestos is a natural material with a fibrous structure. Its resistance has made it a perfect additive for cement. Due to this fact, it is quite used by construction industries. Its insulation properties have made it optimal for cover roofs and walls.
We can find asbestos in friable materials. If these materials are damaged or powdered, they become dangerous for humans. In fact, asbestos is made of little fibre, that could be easily inhaled and they could lead to serious illness to our respiratory system.
HOW TO DISPOSE ASBESTOS?
Only specialised companies can remove and dispose asbestos.
The companies have to:
- verify the presence of asbestos;
- prepare and send the documents necessary to obtain the authorizations;
- encapsulate the material and cover it with penetrating products;
- reclaim the surrounding surfaces on which was laying asbestos;
- get rid of the material;
- dispose definitely the material in landfill.
THE ECOLOGICAL FIBER-CEMENT, THE SUBSTITUTE OF ASBESTOS
The ecological fiber-cement is a perfect substitute for asbestos, because it is a resistent material and so it is suitable for the construction industry. The ecological fiber-cement was created in 1994, inmediately after the ban for the production of eternit. The ecological fiber-cement is suitable for multiple uses in the construction sector, for example in building roofings or tanks for water and other liquids. Even if this new maerial isn't long-lasting as much as asbestos, it could resist without problems for at least 10-15 years.
AM I FORCED TO REMOVE AND DISPOSE OF ASBESTOS?
The law doesn't force you to remove asbestos, but you have to remember that it could be a risk for you and for your family if you dont'eliminate it, especially if it is damaged. According to regulations, the owner of buildings containing asbestos have to deal with its maintenance. If the material is friable, the owner must comunicate it promptly to the responsible institution and start as soon as possible with the process of removal.
WHERE CAN I PUT ASBESTOS?
You can put asbestos in big bags homologated for holding dangerous waste. Then you can transport it to the landfill specialised. From the ecological point of view, big bags play a fundamental role in decontaminate the environments. The bulk bag for hazardous waste and contaminant dregs must be homologated UNI13H3/Y. This big bag is made of a robust polypropylene and it has also a liner made of HDPE, with the purpose of avoid the spill of dangerous contents.
