Asbestos Air Testing & Clearance Monitoring
After asbestos removal, air testing confirms that fibre levels have returned to safe background levels before the area is reoccupied. We carry out post-removal air clearance testing and ongoing air monitoring using UKAS-accredited analytical methods.

Common Questions
Is air testing required after every asbestos removal?
For licensed asbestos removal work, a four-stage clearance procedure including air testing is required before the enclosure is dismantled. For non-licensed work, air testing is not legally required but is recommended for peace of mind.
What is the HSE clearance level for asbestos fibres?
The HSE clearance level is 0.01 fibres per millilitre of air. If air testing results are below this level, the area is considered safe for reoccupation.
