If you've recently disposed of asbestos in Devon, you may be wondering if you need a certificate to prove it.

At 1st Choice Asbestos, we're here to guide you through the process and provide you with the necessary information to ensure you're compliant with UK laws.

Asbestos is a hazardous material that was commonly used in construction and building materials until the 1990s. It's a known carcinogen, and exposure to asbestos can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. When asbestos is disturbed or removed, it releases fibres into the air, which can be inhaled and cause harm. That's why it's crucial to handle asbestos with care and follow the proper procedures for disposal.

In the UK, the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 requires that all asbestos waste be disposed of at a licensed facility. If you've disposed of asbestos, you'll need to obtain a certificate from the licensed facility to prove that the waste was handled and disposed of correctly. This certificate is essential for several reasons: it confirms that the asbestos was disposed of in accordance with UK laws, and it provides a record of the disposal in case of any future audits or inspections.

If you don't have a certificate to prove that you've disposed of asbestos correctly, you may face fines or penalties. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) can issue fines of up to £20,000 for non-compliance with asbestos regulations. Additionally, if you're found to have disposed of asbestos improperly, you may be liable for any health problems or damages caused to others.
