Leaving Asbestos Untreated is as Dangerous as Removal, Making Asbestos Encapsulation Services the Only Safe Option
An asbestos roof may be up to 85 years old. During this time it is inevitable that the roof has weathered and deteriorated allowing deadly asbestos fibres to fly into the atmosphere. Asbestos roof removal is expensive and dangerous and incurs the additional costs and inconvenience of down time and clean up. Insultec asbestos encapsulation process, tested and approved around the world, is the only safe, economical option.
In addressing the need for providing school children with a cooler environment, the Queensland Government introduced the Cool School Program. An additional challenge to the project was the vast majority of schools with asbestos roofs making safety and excessive expense key issues. The outcome - Insultec asbestos encapsulation used safely and conveniently across 431 schools.
Another of the many advantages of this exceptionally durable heat reflective paint is the proven ability to re-radiate 90% of infrared light and 85% of ultraviolet light rays back into the atmosphere, achieving impressively lower internal temperatures.
Companies using Insultec report drops to internal temperatures from 15°C to 20.7°C, dependant on the severity of external heat, even to the extent of no longer requiring air-conditioning to maintain a comfortable, workable environment.
A Long Lasting, Stable Application
Insultec surpasses the Australian Government Paint Committee Approval specifications and has undergone rigorous testing by laboratories around the world including CSIRO, Bureau de Varitas, University of New South Wales, Indian Institute of Bombay, Taywood Engineering and many more, consistently achieving world-beating results.
In tests conducted by Bureau de Varitas, Centre European, Tests and Measures Division, after 3 weeks of exposure to salinated fog, 40°C temperatures and 95% humidity, the membrane showed no effects of dusting, cracking or bubbling, no loss of adhesion or change of colour. In practical experience the solar and pollution resistance of Insultec has been proven to last 10 years and beyond.
Savings Over and Above
Asbestos encapsulation boasts a 66% savings on the cost of removal. With some industrial and commercial roofs spanning 20,000 square metres plus, the monetary savings secured is enormous. Not to mention the savings gained on risk to life - and no percentage or value can be placed on that.
