We carry out asbestos inventories
according to the latest guidelines of SC540 in the Netherlands.
During such an inventory, asbestos from the premises in question
is analysed and the client fully informed of the facts. Cases
which call for such an inventory could be: the imminent sale of
a property, its demolition or the necessity to meet health and
safety guidelines. |

Fibrecount has been accredited for the study
of asbestos in air, water, flooring and construction material. In
Rotterdam and Antwerp we examine asbestos samples
with stereos: polarisations and electron microscope (SEM and TEM).
Our mobile laboratories carry out air measurements after the removal
of asbestos following a fire or any other such accident.
The facts about asbestos
Questions constantly arise wherever asbestos is concerned: What is
asbestos exactly? Is it dangerous? What must I do if I suspect
asbestos is present or has been found? In the Netherlands, seven
million barrels of pure asbestos were originally imported. This
asbestos raw material was subsequently processed to be used in
various forms of construction. After being mixed with cement, for
instance, roof tiles were made. It was also commonly used for
flooring.
