Hazardous Material Surveys
Reducing the risk
The identification and safe removal of hazardous materials is vital to ensure the health and safety of employees.
At ACS, we work with you to determine the nature of the hazardous material and arrange for its safe removal. Our service offers you:

Full assessment
In accordance with best practice procedures and legislation, we undertake an occupational health and safety and environmental risk assessment based on the condition of hazardous materials identified and prioritised, during our survey.
Our comprehensive assessment procedures involve investigations for the presence of hazardous materials, including:
- Asbestos
- Synthetic mineral fibre
- Polychlorinated biphenyls (from fluorescent light fittings)
- Ozone depleting substances
- Lead paint
Informed decisions
We collect information from the owners, occupiers or tenants of the site relating to relevant issues pertaining to the site.
Suspected hazardous materials are, where required, visually or analytically characterised and detailed in a Hazardous Materials Register, which typically shows:
- Material
- Location
- Condition
- Photographic Reference
- Potential risk
The Hazardous Materials Register also provides information on the class of the material and details for its safe removal and disposal.
