The durable composition of ABC allows for dilution with water, which makes it ideal when specific needs exist in terms of preventing removal by penetration through building walls where total protection against potential exposure would otherwise be unavailable due to its volatility associated with concerns around air pollution control technology typically installed near industries utilizing this type of waste product.

How can I ensure ACMs cannot break through to the living environment?

Bridging Encapsulants are a great way to manage potentially friable asbestos in place. They’re an excellent method for abatement (making it permanently safe) of sprayed-on fireproofing.
