Asbestos

Analysis of suspected asbestos impacted wastes and soils

Discovering suspected asbestos-containing material in the ground is a common occurrence and can have significant cost and program implications for a project. A quick assessment of the findings is therefore essential.

Similarly, if previous analysis has identified asbestos fibres within the soil, determining the extent and concentration helps classify the waste or assess its suitability for reuse.

SoilEx provide analysis of asbestos in as little as 24 hours, meaning your site can have certainty on a way forward quickly.

Asbestos identification is also crucial in determining if ongoing work is considered notifiable and licensable, and our qualified asbestos engineers and chartered waste managers can assist with these assessments.

SoilEx can provide:

Sampling and analysis of soils impacted with asbestos, or suspected ACM’s
Analysis to confirm if asbestos is present or not
Quantification of any identified asbestos to assist with waste classification
Onward advice and services to help manage the issue compliantly and cost-effectively

We have partnered with SoilEx for several years and their support has been invaluable in allowing our business to deliver better value and secure more complex work with our Tier 1 clients.

At Harringtons we pride ourselves on the quality we deliver, and with SoilEx working throughout our whole business I know we will manage our waste as well as anyone in the industry.
