Understanding the Different Types of Asbestos

Asbestos was once widely used in buildings across the UK, valued for its strength and resistance to heat. But when disturbed, asbestos fibres can be extremely harmful to health. If you're dealing with an older property or planning refurbishment, it's important to understand the different types of asbestos and where they might be found.

There are six types of asbestos, but only three were commonly used in the UK

Asbestos is a natural mineral, and it comes in six forms. These are grouped into two families: serpentine and amphibole. In the UK, three types of asbestos were used extensively before the ban came into force in 1999.

Chrysotile (white asbestos)
White asbestos was the most commonly used type and is also known as chrysotile. It has curly fibres and comes from the serpentine group. Due to its flexibility and heat resistance, it was widely used in building materials such as ceilings, roofs, walls and floors. You’ll often find it in cement products, insulation boards, Artex or textured coatings, and vinyl floor tiles.

Amosite (brown asbestos)
Brown asbestos is often found in insulation and cement, especially in materials like pipe insulation, ceiling tiles, fire protection panels and thermal insulation products. Also known as amosite, it has straight fibres and is considered more hazardous than white asbestos.

Crocidolite (blue asbestos)
Blue asbestos is the most dangerous form and was banned earlier than other types due to its extreme health risks. Also known as crocidolite, it has fine, sharp fibres that are easily inhaled. It was often used in high-temperature insulation and spray coatings, and may still be found in spray applications, lagging on pipes and boilers, and asbestos-cement products.
