Management Plans & Registers
Asbestas can provide specifically designed Management Plans & Registers. The intent of an Asbestos Management Plan & Register is to assist the controller of a premises in the prevention of exposure to airborne Asbestos fibres. An Asbestos Management Plan & Register clearly defines the procedures and responsibilities of those who have control and identify the potential Asbestos hazards in the workplace. Supporting services of a Management Plan & Register include Asbestos sampling, laboratory testing, labeling, encapsulation, ongoing monitoring of workplaces and removal of Asbestos.
Audits/Surveys & Risk Management
Asbestas specialises in the preparation of full Asbestos audits and surveys, including risk assessments for all types of structures. The risk of exposure to Asbestos cannot be effectively assessed unless all workplaces are inspected and a complete Register of all Asbestos containing materials is established. The ‘Register’ forms the basis of a Management Plan designed to control potential exposure to Asbestos.
Asbestos Laboratory Testing
Asbestas can provide NATA-certified laboratory facilities for analysis of suspect Asbestos materials including testing for airborne Asbestos fibre levels. These services can be either as an element of an overall Asbestos Audit, or as an individual service.

Asbestas is based in Launceston, Tasmania, and has extensive experience in the management of Asbestos removal projects. Laboratory and scientific contractors are accredited by the National Association of Testing Authorities (NATA).

This will help in ensuring that safety is kept as top priority in day-to-day operations and specific projects that deal with Asbestos. These sessions are easily scheduled and carried out by one of our professional and experienced team members, with over 40 years’ experience.
