For many years, asbestos was used in everyday construction, but has now been recognized as a serious health hazard. The inhaling of asbestos fibers can cause a buildup of scar-like tissue in the lungs called asbestosis, which results in the loss of lung function, often leading to death. Asbestos has also been linked to causing cancer of the lung and other diseases such as mesothelioma. With our Easy-to-Use SLGi Home Test Kit, you can sample and submit suspected asbestos-containing bulk material to be tested by our laboratory. All tests are conducted using approved methods and an analytical report will be available to view online within your requested turnaround time. Expert consultation is included to help you interpret your results! Please note: This kit includes an overnight waybill to ship back to our lab, but is sent to you via ground. Transit time to your location, and back to our lab is not factored into the same day turnaround. The same day counter begins when your kit is received in our lab.
