📜 History of Asbestos Use in Siding Products

From the 1920s through the 1980s, asbestos was a common additive in siding materials used in residential, commercial, and industrial construction. Asbestos provided siding with exceptional fire resistance, durability, and resistance to water damage, making it a preferred building material for decades. Siding panels, shingles, and boards were installed on millions of buildings across the United States.

Unfortunately, cutting, sawing, drilling, or removing asbestos siding released dangerous microscopic fibers into the air. These fibers could remain airborne for hours, easily inhaled by workers and bystanders. Even weathering and natural degradation of siding materials over time contributed to fiber release, putting homeowners, maintenance crews, and renovation workers at risk long after installation.
