Asbestos Waste FAQs

  • HAZARDOUS WASTE What is asbestos?

    Asbestos is a natural fibrous mineral once widely used in building materials for insulation, fireproofing and durability. It is now known to cause serious lung diseases if airborne fibres are inhaled, so it is classified as hazardous waste.

  • HAZARDOUS WASTE How is asbestos waste disposed of?

    After removal by licensed contractors, asbestos waste must be sealed in approved bags or containers, transported safely, and taken to authorised hazardous-waste facilities. It cannot be disposed of via standard general waste or recycling services.

  • HAZARDOUS WASTE What is an asbestos report, and when is it required for commercial property?

    An asbestos survey and report are required for buildings constructed or refurbished before the asbestos ban. Before refurbishment or demolition, a qualified surveyor must assess and document the presence of asbestos. This report guides safe removal if required.

  • HAZARDOUS WASTE What types of asbestos waste are common in buildings?

    Common waste includes floor and ceiling tiles, insulation boards, lagging, roofing sheets, old wiring coating, fireproof panels, and other materials containing asbestos fibres.
