-
Natural disasters like floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and wildfires leave behind toxic materials that can pose long-term health risks when they become airborne.
-
Hazardous materials such as asbestos, lead-based paint, and heavy metals are released into the environment during disasters, compounding the consequences.
-
Floodwaters, known as blackwater, contain raw sewage, heavy metals, asbestos, PCBs, pesticides, diesel fuel, and other toxic debris that can linger on surfaces and become airborne when dried.
-
Tornadoes, earthquakes, and wildfires also release dangerous toxins that settle down and can be re-released during cleanup, leading to secondary exposures.
-
Wildfires leave neighborhoods covered in toxic debris and ash containing high levels of heavy metals, electronic waste, paints, PCBs, and asbestos.
-
The use of GEI (Global ENCASEMENT, Inc) Green Coatings ENCASEMENT provides a simple and effective solution for controlling and containing hazardous debris before and during the cleanup process.
-
Proper cleanup and containment practices are crucial to reducing injuries and illnesses associated with toxic residual debris.
-
Wetting debris with water during cleanup minimizes the release of toxic dust temporarily, but using GEI's (Global ENCASEMENT, Inc) MPE™ coating ensures long-lasting containment even after the water evaporates.
-
GEI's (Global ENCASEMENT, Inc) MPE™ and other coatings effectively control dust and solid hazardous materials, minimizing the impact on people and communities.
-
The implementation of GEI's (Global ENCASEMENT, Inc) Green ENCASEMENT Coatings is essential for removing solid hazardous materials and sealing down residual contamination during the cleanup process.
