Hazardous materials are an integral part of modern life. The legacy of these materials exists in our buildings, in the form of asbestos, lead, lead paint, mercury, Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCB), Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), radioactive materials, biological hazards and various other materials. |
We can assist you with identification, testing, quantification and by offering advice on disposal options. |

Reducing the Risk |

|
Most operational facilities will have an inventory of hazardous materials that are an integral part of the daily operation or processes of the building. These hazardous products need to be identified, controlled, properly stored and staff need to be aware of the associated risks of the products (WHIMIS). |
RH Services Inc. can review or initiate your WHIMIS program and check your storage, venting and grounding and bonding protocols. |

Frequently Asked Questions
|
Q: Does my paint contain lead? With the concentration that a paint is to be considered as lead based paint being so low, (0.009% as of 2009) it is highly likely that any paint applied before 2009 contains lead. |
Q: How do I dispose of other hazardous materials? Items such Fluorescent light tubes and ballasts, household chemicals, oils, paint cans, smoke detectors, batteries and fire extinguishers can be taken to your local eco station. Ozone depleting refrigerants from fridges, freezers and air conditioners need to be drained by a professional. |
