Summary and extracts
1 Market Overview
1.1 Definition and presentation
The term asbestos defines a group of mineral fibers, silicates, also found in some rocks; it has a fibrous structure that gives it a lot of mechanical strength and flexibility, and it can be spun and woven quickly; and so it has a wide range of applications in different industries. Asbestos removal refers to the process of removal from buildings and structures, as well as from vehicles such as old trains and ships. Asbestos removal is strictly controlled worldwide because of the health hazards associated with the development of asbestos. Asbestos can be found in a variety of products, including mortar, plaster, slabs, roofing, bitumen and walls. Several processes are required to remove asbestos from spaces and buildings: containment, asbestos extraction, quality control, and waste annihilation are all tasks to be completed.
In Italy, asbestos was used in a wide range of goods until the late 1980s. Asbestos is used in a variety of products, including insulation, floor coverings, and asbestos cement. There were about 3,000 distinct uses of asbestos in all. In Italy, asbestos is also known as Eternit, named after the largest manufacturer, which has been involved in several legal issues in the past due to poisoning people and polluting the environment. Today the cost of asbestos removal and disposal in Italy can range from €8 up to €25 per square meter. To qualify as an asbestos treatment company, an Italian company must be registered with the Register of Environmental Managers.
In Italy, the asbestos contamination crisis is severe; there are still 58 million square meters of asbestos-cement roofs and 40 million tons of asbestos-containing products that continue to endanger people. This means that the asbestos removal market in this country can still count on significant demand.
Technological innovation in the industry is at the heart of the market with the rise of asbestos removal robots and digital to simplify on-site diagnosis. The future challenge will be to combine the different professions and manage digital and technological methods to survive in a market that still has much potential.
