Asbestos Contaminated Vermiculite in Toronto
Did you know that homes and offices with vermiculite in Toronto may contain deadly asbestos? Buildings that are more than 20 years old are especially high risk!
The American Cancer Society has classified asbestos as a carcinogen because prolonged exposure has caused lung cancer, Mesothelioma (cancer of the lining of the chest or abdominal cavity) or Asbestosis (scarring of the thin membranes lining the lung and chest) in many individuals.
By itself, vermiculite is a safe insulation material. However, contact with asbestos during mining has rendered it a health risk. Health Canada and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warn about prolonged exposure to the material.

Even the slightest disturbance could release asbestos fibres into the air increasing your exposure and the area of contamination.
