Damaged Residential Asbestos Millboard Insulation

View of damaged high-percentage asbestos millboard insulation in basement of residential structure, formerly used as heat shielding on wooden support member.

 

Often mistakenly thought of as regular cardboard or "transite" paneling, asbestos millboard is a distinct type of insulation, usually distinguished more notably by its density and friability, as compared to corrugated paper or cement-based materials.

 

Material characterization aside, this damaged asbestos material will be removed by properly trained and licensed asbestos abatement contractor personnel.
