Commercial asbestos management

If your building or property was built before 1990 then it is highly likely it will contain some form of asbestos or materials that contain asbestos. As a business or property owner, you now have a duty to identify and manage any asbestos present in your building. We can also help you understand your legal requirements along with your duties and responsibilities in line with the new Asbestos Code of Practice.

Any asbestos project can have its challenges but commercial and industrial properties are often more complex due to the amount of asbestos involved or the location of the asbestos in inaccessible areas such as walls, beams and columns. ATL has the knowledge and experience to simply and effectively manage all of your commercial asbestos needs. Our teams have experience gained from working on a wide range of commercial properties from both private and public sectors and in multiple industries.

Based on the level of risk and regulatory compliance requirements we will assess whether the removal is necessary or whether the asbestos can be safely managed by using a suitable containment solution and a comprehensive management plan. We are  Class A & Class B asbestos removal license holders. You can find out our license here on the Worksafe Asbestos License Holder Register.

If removal is required there are a number of factors that will determine the correct legal approach, such as the amount of asbestos that needs to be removed, as well as the location and condition of the asbestos. ATL can help you understand the legal requirements in line with the new Asbestos Code of Practice, along with your duties and responsibilities as a home owner, business or property owner.

ATL can provide a range of asbestos services, all of which comply with the current asbestos regulations and industry best practice to help business and property owners manage their asbestos risks in a safe, simple and excellent manner.
