Three types of asbestos.
There are three main types of asbestos. Each type of asbestos is used for different purposes. One is known as white asbestos and is comprised of long curly fibres and used predominantly in asbestos sheeting and blankets. Another type of asbestos is known as blue asbestos. Blue asbestos dust is comprised of very fine almost invisible needles, that easily enter the lungs when breathed in. This type of asbestos is particularly dangerous. Brown asbestos is very similar to blue asbestos, only the needles are thicker and therefore prove less hazardous than the blue asbestos. Asbestos fibres are invisible to the human eye. A safe way to have Asbestos removal UK done is to be employing the services of an asbestos removal of contract.
