VertaseFLI was appointed to carry out remediation and groundworks in Asbestos Containing Material (ACM) during the construction of a University Technical College (UTC) on a former Rail Depot in Swindon. The client identified ACM on site just prior to the commencement of demolition works. VertaseFLI was engaged to advise the client on the most appropriate and robust way forward to ensure that there was no risk for the site workers or the future UTC users.
