Why Semlab
Asbestos analysis for you in Madrid
A city that grew fast
Madrid expanded rapidly in the second half of the 20th century, and whole districts of brick apartment blocks date from the 1950s to the 1980s. Buildings from this period were put up while asbestos-containing products were widely used. In flats of this age, look at floor tiles and their adhesive, old ceiling boards, and pipes or ducts in shared spaces.
Fibre-cement on roofs and terraces
In Spain, asbestos-cement products, often simply called "uralita", were used for corrugated roofing, water tanks, flues and downpipes. They are still common on rooftops, terraces and in courtyards. A water tank or downpipe of this type should not be cut, drilled or broken up. If you want to know whether a sheet or tank contains asbestos, take a small piece without creating dust, or ask a specialist to do it, and send it to us for analysis.
