Asbestos and Artex

Artex is a textured coating that was popular in the 1970s and 1980s, particularly for ceilings. Artex products were often made with asbestos to add strength and durability to the texture. Asbestos fibers are microscopic and can be inhaled easily, which can lead to serious health issues such as lung cancer and mesothelioma.
