A-Best Products Company

A-Best Products employees exposed to asbestos

During the last century, A-Best Products made use of asbestos in large amounts, as the mineral has numerous convenient properties, such as excellent resistance to fire, electricity and a wide range of chemicals. Furthermore, it was also very cheap at the time. Specializing in the manufacturing of safety clothing such as gloves, aprons, and coats, A-Best Products Company is another business that heavily made use of asbestos. Due to the remarkable fire resistance it has, asbestos was the raw material of choice when it came to protective textiles throughout the past century. However, the mineral is also highly carcinogenic, so, while the clothing of A-Best Products Company might have shielded people like welders against fire, they also posed a serious threat to their health with wear and tear. Unfortunately, plenty of people who partook in the manufacturing of asbestos textiles later developed harrowing diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis and lung cancer.

Diseases that occur as a consequence of asbestos exposure have a long latency period of 10 to 50 years and vague symptoms, which is why they are so problematic to diagnose. The occupation at the highest risk of developing a serious disease as a result of exposure to the asbestos products of this company is factory workers.

If someone in your family was employed at A-Best Products Company, you might have been exposed to asbestos too

Lack of adequate industrial hygiene is the reason why so many people who never handled asbestos themselves came to suffer from diseases such as COPD, asbestosis, pleural plaques, and lung cancer. Asbestos workers – including those at A-Best Products Company – did not have to change their clothes at the end of the day and thereby, toxic fibers would be brought home, where family members could easily inhale or ingest them. This route of exposure is referred to as secondary asbestos exposure. Regrettably, it can result in the same terrible illnesses as occupational asbestos exposure.

While money can never replace health, it is important to know that, if you are a victim of secondary asbestos exposure as a consequence of living with a family member who worked at A-Best Products Company, you are eligible for compensation.
