Cope Safety Management - Asbestos Services for Nottingham
Asbestos has been used on a commercial scale for about 150 years. It is ideal as a fire proofing and insulation material and is widely found in buildings, houses and factories. Around 3,500 people in Great Britain die each year from Asbestos related diseases. Figures are expected to rise during the next 10 years.
Although it is now illegal to use asbestos there is still much of it in place. As long as asbestos is in good condition and is not being, or going to be disturbed or damaged there is no risk. The message from the HSE is to leave asbestos in place and manage it unless it is in poor condition or likely to be disturbed.
If you own or are responsible for maintenance or repairs of commercial premises you must identify all asbestos containing material by carrying out an asbestos survey to reduce the risk from asbestos. There are many old buildings in Nottingham and the surrounding region and it is essential that an asbestos management plan is in place.
Cope Safety Management can provide asbestos services to businesses in Nottingham and the surrounding region. We would initially conduct either a type 1, 2 or 3 Asbestos Survey and then prepare an Asbestos Management Plan to ensure you comply with your legal duties.
