The naturally occurring mineral asbestos has been used in a wide variety of occupational settings, most notably the construction industry. Primarily used for its insulating and fireproofing capabilities, asbestos was incorporated into an estimated 3,000 construction products. Due to the widespread use of asbestos, all workers within the construction industry may have been exposed to the toxic mineral at some point during their employment.
With more than 3,000 pages of content, our site features information on asbestos, mesothelioma, and other cancers that are caused by asbestos exposure.
