The MACK Group, LLC Completes Asbestos Removal of Tile and Plaster

The MACK Group, LLC recently completed an asbestos abatement removal project at a large former battery manufacturing plant in Northern New Jersey. The Mack Group, LLC was selected to perform the project based on their expert level of contractor services, their professional reputation, their attention to safety and schedule as well as their economical approach to asbestos removal services.

The 1st Phase of asbestos removal project consisted of the asbestos abatement of 14,000 square feet of tile and 8,000 square feet of plaster. These asbestos materials where located throughout the facility and required close coordination to make sure all materials were properly remediated.
Prior to asbestos abatement activities, a 10 day notification was submitted which is a written notification of intention to demolish in accordance with 40 CFR 61.145 to 61.155 and N.J.A.C. 7:26-2.12(d) and (e). Proper asbestos wetting, removal and handling techniques were employed to safely remove the materials.

The Mack Group, LLC used various techniques to remove the asbestos plaster materials. Wetting of all friable ACM and bagging the ACM using poly-wrapping was one method. Also utilized was the wetting and direct placement in lined (at least 6 mil thick liner) and sealed bulk containers.

To remove the asbestos floor tile and mastic, MACK used a combination of proprietary flooring removal machines that they own in their fleet of abatement equipment. The flooring removal machines have zero emissions and fumes allowing for use in restricted ventilation areas. These machines allowed MACK to easily remove the floor tile and mastic down to the original concrete floor surface without damaging the existing concrete.

The transportation of asbestos and ACM was in accordance with N.J.A.C. 7:26-3.5(d) and by registered New Jersey solid waste vehicles. ACM was then properly disposed at a licensed landfill.

The project was a complete success as it was accomplished on schedule, without injury or incident and within the client’s budget.
