Asbestos, a fibrous silicate mineral, was widely used in the UK until its complete ban in 1999 due to serious health risks, including respiratory diseases and cancers. Despite the ban, many pre-2000 buildings still contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs), necessitating careful management or removal to prevent hazardous exposure.
The Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012 (CAR 2012) governs asbestos management in the UK, outlining two primary categories for asbestos removal: licensed and non-licensed.
