Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that you may have a lot of questions about asbestos, its safe removal, and what counts as appropriate asbestos packaging. We’ve answered these questions below to the best of our knowledge.

What is asbestos?

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral used in building materials due to its heat resistance and durability. However, it is hazardous when disturbed, as its fibres can cause serious health issues, including asbestosis and lung disease.

What colour are asbestos bags?

Legally compliant asbestos disposal bags come in a double-bagging system:

• Red inner asbestos bags for initial containment.
• Clear outer asbestos bags for extra security and compliance.

What bags can you use for asbestos?

Only UN-certified asbestos waste bags should be used for asbestos disposal. These meet regulatory safety standards to ensure hazardous waste is securely contained.

How to use asbestos bags safely?

Always use asbestos removal PPE, including gloves, coveralls, and a mask. Place the asbestos material into the red asbestos bag, ensuring it’s not overfilled, and secure with heavy-duty duct tape to prevent fibre release. Insert the sealed red bag into the clear asbestos bag and seal this too. Dispose of the bags correctly at an authorised waste facility in accordance with waste regulations.
