Certified Asbestos Abatement Contractor
Asbestos is known to cause serious health complications, which can directly lead to death. Thousands of people die each year due to asbestos exposure in the US, and the number is projected to rise.
Globally asbestos is known for its toxic nature and lethal consequences of long-term exposure. This is exactly why Asbestos has been completely banned from over 40 countries, such as Egypt, France, U.K., Ireland, Australia, and many others. The US has discontinued the mining of asbestos but it continues to allow it with manufacturing, distribution, and importation regulations.
The fact that counties worldwide have banned this product completely should be a good indication that you should not ever try to remove asbestos from a location of your concern.
No matter how much research you do on the topic of self-removal, there is no way that you can guarantee the safety of yourself while completing the removal or the safety of the environment after you are done.
Maryland Recovery is an EPA Certified Asbestos Abatement Contractor.
What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a group of multiply different naturally occurring fibers. They have been commonly used in the construction industry due to their immediate benefits. Asbestos, formally referred to as a ‘Miracle Fiber’, gave the construction industry an affordable, easily mass-produced product that was fire resistant, impervious to chemicals, could withstand water, and does not conduct electricity. But the long-term cost of this fast profit product would be later discovered and the cost would be the health and lives of many hard-working people.
Types of Asbestos:
- Amosite (Brown Appearance)
- Chrysotile (White Appearance)
- Crocidolite (Blue Appearance)
- Tremolite (Gray Appearance)
- Actinolite (Gray Appearance)
- Anthophyllite (Gray Appearance)

Airborne Asbestos Cleanup
Disturbing products that contain asbestos is where the real threat lies. Once moved or torn up the dangerous asbestos fibers get released. Once the fibers are airborne they can then be inhaled into the lungs or ingested through the mouth.
Once they enter the body, they do not leave and can cause a variety of painful, harmful, and deadly health problems such as Mesothelioma Cancer, Lung Cancer, and Asbestosis.
