Informing on the Perils of Asbestos

02 June 2015 | Updated 01 January 1970
 

This year’s Asbestos the Truth Conference, organised by Lucion Environmental, will be aimed at procurement professionals in local authorities and project managers in construction industries, alongside others in the infrastructure, education, housing, utilities, manufacturing, civil engineering and retail sectors.

The national asbestos market for surveying and air testing work is currently worth approximately £240 million; a figure that is expected to increase as future demand for industry expertise and specialised services continues to grow.

Enclosure air flow demonstrations and the latest in asbestos testing, will feature at the conference, together with a series of tailor-made seminars to equip professionals with the knowledge to plan for future changes to technology and legislation.

The Asbestos the Truth Conference is the sixth conference on the subject (2 September 2015, Park Plaza Victoria, London) and this year it will be hosted by British broadcaster and former How presenter, Fred Dinenage.
