in industrial and commercial applications to improve flexibility, adhesion, and
durability. Though their manufacture and use was banned in 1979, PCBs can still
be found in buildings constructed or renovated between 1950 and 1979 in
materials like caulk, paints, grout, sealants, as well as many more.PCBs are regulated by the EPA and are increasingly a
serious liability for building owners. Various state and
federal regulations prohibit the use or release of PCBs into
the environment. Know if your building is at risk of containing
PCBs and take action before you accidentally incur fines!Don’t get caught off guard! If you’re planning a construction,
renovation or demolition project, test proactively to avoid
additional costs, delays, and protect human and
environmental health.
