Frequently asked questions

  • Asbestos is still a significant concern across Auckland's commercial and industrial sectors, particularly given the city's extensive development during the 1940s-1990s when asbestos was commonly used. Many of Auckland's commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and infrastructure from this period contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Professional asbestos testing in Auckland NZ has become increasingly important as these buildings age.

    With ongoing urban redevelopment and renovation projects throughout the region, professional testing for asbestos in Auckland is essential for ensuring workplace safety and compliance with current regulations.

  • If an asbestos survey in Auckland identifies ACMs in your property, follow these steps:

    1. Engage our consultants to confirm the extent and condition of ACMs through asbestos testing in NZ

    2. Have the samples analysed by our “testing laboratory”

    3. Develop a comprehensive asbestos management plan based on the findings

    4. Implement appropriate control measures for workplace safety

    5. Maintain detailed documentation for compliance

    6. Check the condition of the identified asbestos as per the site’s asbestos management plan.

    Our experienced team will guide you through asbestos testing in Auckland, ensuring your property meets all regulatory requirements with minimal disruption to your operations.

  • Auckland follows strict national regulations under the Health and Safety at Work (Asbestos) Regulations 2016, with additional local council requirements. For commercial and industrial properties in Auckland, this includes:

    • Specific documentation and notification processes through WorkSafe NZ
