Once a popular material for insulation, asbestos is now illegal to use in more than 60 countries worldwide. Despite the restrictions, asbestos is still present in ceiling tiles, pipe insulation, roofing, and other areas. The safest and cost-effective method to stop the release of harmful asbestos into the air is asbestos encapsulation. With no disturbance to the asbestos, you can safely live in a house without any problem. It is affordable as compared to asbestos removal and less hazardous. At ALDServices we are experts at handling asbestos materials with expertise.
Encapsulation is the treatment of an Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) with a material that surrounds or embeds asbestos fibers in an adhesive matrix to prevent the release of fibers. The encapsulant creates a membrane over the surface (bridging encapsulant) or penetrates the material and binds its components together (penetrating encapsulant).
There are a variety of products currently on the market to encapsulate thermal ACM, and we can recommend the product that will meet your specific needs.
