Asbestos locations in the Kajaani building stock
The housing stock of Kajaani grew largely around the paper industry during the 1950s-1980s. In these properties asbestos appears especially in the adhesive under the floor tile, in the substrate of the vinyl flooring, in the wall filler and in the pipe insulation. In industrial properties, boiler and pipe insulation dominate.
Distance and the timing of the answer
From Kajaani a letter typically takes two business days. The analysis is done on the day of arrival, so the answer is usually in your email on the third business day after posting. Distance affects neither the analysis nor the price - only when the letter reaches the laboratory.
