Pawtucket Mesothelioma Attorneys
Asbestos is a naturally-occurring mineral that has been used in a variety of goods by both ancient and modern civilizations. For much of its known history, it was valued for its aesthetic properties and was even considered a luxurious material to weave into the fabric of different textiles. Then, as industrialization progressed and mass production of asbestos-laden items exploded in the 20th century, it first entered the world of technology and industry.
The toxic substance was cheap to purchase and a good natural insulator, effectively blocking heat transfer, and therefore suited to use in many products that were served well by that combination. Building insulation, certain auto parts, and many heat-bearing pipes are just some of the places where one would likely have encountered asbestos.
Yet despite a now long-standing awareness that asbestos is dangerous, it is still mined for export, and many buildings are still potential threats to public health. This lack of responsible management mirrors the negligence of so many employers and manufacturers whose greed resulted in the needless exposure of thousands upon thousands to asbestos.
