Asbestos Shipyards

Asbestos exposure often ocurred in shipyards during the buidling and repair of new ships. Since ships ran on coal that posed a fire hazard, asbestos was sued to insulate the areas that could overheat as well as the pipes that ran through the entire ship.

Because of this every single person who worked in building ships in the shipyard ran the risk of being exposed to asbestos.
