Asbestos safety

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

A specialist asbestos surveying and analysis company has introduced a labelling concept to ensure the safe management of any asbestos containing materials identified in buildings.

Lucion Environmental has combined the traditional asbestos ‘A-sticker’ warning label with quick response (QR) codes to enable all pertinent information on the presence of any asbestos in a particular location to be made immediately available to whoever may need it.

The idea is to connect the availability of a traditional asbestos register that details where asbestos containing materials (ACMs) have been identified in a building with an interactive label that provides direct access to the detailed information needed to ensure the safe management of that particular situation.

To achieve this the QR code on the label is linked directly to digital site survey records incorporating full details of the condition of any asbestos containing materials (ACM) present, access restrictions and other safeguards that are required by anyone who may need to carry out work in the vicinity.

Lucion carries out extensive asbestos inspection and management surveys for clients in the construction, utilities, health, education and infrastructure sectors.
