Asbestos Testing For Residential & Commercial Properties
We provide a wide variety of asbestos testing and air monitoring reports to help you identify if their is asbestos in your residential home or commercial properties. We can help you track down where the hazardous material is and have it removed for you and have the area cleaned to ensure the space is clean and rid of any asbestos materials.
Laboratory testing is incredibly important and the only way to accurately identify if a suspected material contains hazardous materials such as asbestos. Hazardous material testing includes asbestos, lead paint, mould, and methamphetamine (meth) and must be performed using a physical sample within a laboratory environment using a microscope.
Asbestos falls into two broad categories friable (can easily be crushed by hand and can easily create dust) and bonded (created from a bonding compound). The most common types of asbestos fibre that can be found in nature are chrysotile (white), amosite (brown) and crocidolite (blue).
Given the range of colour differences it is easy to see why laboratory analysis is needed to properly identify the presence of asbestos and the different types of asbestos fibres. It should be noted that all types of asbestos have been known to be dangerous and asbestos is a proven carcinogen.
To best protect yourself and others from the hazards of asbestos, always engage a licensed asbestos professional if there is a chance asbestos may be present.

The ANZ Enviro team is professionally prepared, experienced & equipped to assist in the secure sample collection and removal of any type of hazardous material.

The ANZ Enviro team is pleased to collect samples from any commercial, industrial, or residential location including if bulk samples are required.
During the collection process, the qualified and experienced ANZ Enviro team takes special care to minimize the potential for harmful asbestos containing dust to be generated and therefore, becoming airborne. Samples are then carefully transported to a NATA accredited laboratory for further testing and analysis.
The results of an asbestos laboratory test are critical to accurately assessing the potential risk. All asbestos sample results are provided quickly in a comprehensive report format.
Once results have been obtained, an appropriate asbestos management plan can then be developed from the asbestos report.

It should be noted that NATA asbestos testing is necessary for the identification of both bonded and friable asbestos.
