Asbestos

While asbestos installation is less common today due to regulatory restrictions in many regions, Met Connections provides legacy support for controlled, legal uses of asbestos materials in specialised environments. Services include:

• Authorised Asbestos Use: Installation of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) for applications where their unique properties (e.g., fire resistance, durability) are legally permitted, such as in high-temperature or chemical-resistant environments.
• Expert Handling: Certified technicians handle the material to ensure adherence to strict safety protocols.
• Custom Solutions: Tailored installations using asbestos substitutes or encapsulated asbestos products, where applicable, to meet specific industry needs.

Met Connections conducts thorough inspections to assess the feasibility of asbestos installation or the status of existing ACMs:

• Pre-installation site surveys and risk assessments.
• Material identification and      laboratory testing to confirm asbestos presence.
• Detailed reports outlining safety measures and compliance recommendations.

• Encapsulation Services: Applying protective coatings to seal existing      asbestos materials, preventing fibre release.
• Repair Services: Addressing damaged ACMs to maintain safety and structural integrity.

• Assistance with regulatory      compliance for asbestos use, including permits and documentation.
• Providing expert guidance on the use of asbestos alternatives to reduce health risks.

While focused on installation and maintenance, Met Connections also offers support in transitioning away from asbestos by:

• Managing the safe removal of ACMs where their use is no longer appropriate.
• Replacing asbestos with modern,      safer materials.
