Insulators face asbestos exposure risk at older buildings

Insulators working with insulation in older equipment or buildings face the risk of asbestos exposure.

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, insulators cement, staple, wire, tape, or spray insulation on walls, tanks, vessels, boilers, pipes and other equipment or surfaces.

The work may often involve cutting, inserting screws or otherwise manipulating insulation material.

Because asbestos was once extensively used in insulation material, insulators working with older insulation material face the risk of asbestos exposure.
