Many public sector properties, built or refurbished prior to 2000, contain asbestos in materials such as ceiling tiles, insulation, and flooring. With our full 3-year HSE licence and extensive experience, we deliver tailored solutions to eliminate asbestos risks, protecting public sector workers, visitors, and communities while meeting stringent regulatory requirements.
Specialist Asbestos Solutions for Public Sector Projects
Asbestos in public sector buildings poses a significant risk, especially in high-traffic areas like schools or community centres where vulnerable groups, including children and the elderly, are present. When asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are disturbed during maintenance, renovations, or emergency repairs, they release fibres that can lead to serious health conditions like mesothelioma or asbestosis. Amiante STR specialises in managing asbestos in public sector settings, offering efficient, discreet services that prioritise safety and compliance while aligning with public sector budgets and timelines.

Supporting Public Sector Priorities
Public sector projects require careful coordination, schools need asbestos removal during holidays, while council buildings must remain accessible for staff. We excel at working around your schedule, often operating out-of-hours or in phased stages to minimise disruption to public services. Our team has experience managing high-profile projects, such as removing asbestos from a 1960s school block or clearing a local authority office during a planned closure, ensuring timelines are met without compromising safety. We also understand the importance of budget constraints, offering cost-effective solutions that deliver maximum value for taxpayers.
Safety & Compliance for Public Safety
Safety is at the heart of our public sector work. We adhere to the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, backed by our HSE licence and rigorous training. Our processes include strict containment, air monitoring, and post-removal verification to ensure your site is asbestos-free and compliant with UK law. As part of the Collard Group, we provide detailed compliance reports for public sector audits, ensuring transparency and accountability while protecting the communities you serve.
