Respiratory protection equipment in the asbestos industry: Life-saving protection against invisible danger

Working with asbestos is one of the most dangerous activities in the construction and renovation sector. Asbestos fibres are extremely fine and can cause serious health problems when inhaled, including asbestosis, lung cancer and mesothelioma. Effective respiratory protection is therefore essential for anyone who comes into contact with materials containing asbestos.

Why is respiratory protection necessary when working with asbestos?

Asbestos fibres are microscopic and invisible to the naked eye. When asbestos products are processed, broken up or disposed of, these fibres are released and can enter the lungs. There they are permanently deposited and can cause disease even decades later. For this reason, wearing suitable respiratory protection is required by law and serves to directly protect health.

What respiratory protection options are available?

Technical Rules for Hazardous Substances 519 stipulate different minimum requirements for respiratory protection depending on the number of asbestos fibres in the air:

from 10,000 asbestos fibres/m³ in the air

from 100,000 asbestos fibres/m³ in the air

from 300,000 asbestos fibres/m³ in the air

4 million asbestos fibres/m³ in the air
