ALERT to start trials ‘Down Under’ funded by Australian Government
We’re excited to announce that in partnership with Active Environmental Solutions (Alemir International Pty Ltd) we have been successfully awarded a grant for the running of feasibility trials of our ALERT real-time airborne asbestos warning devices in Australia. In 2021, the Asbestos Safety and Eradication Agency (ASEA) made a successful submission to the Business Research and Innovation Initiative (BRII) – RegTech Round, on the challenge of using technology for real-time and accurate asbestos testing. BRII is administered by the Australian Government, through the Department of Industry, Science, Energy and Resources. Our grant will be used to run an initial 3-month feasibility study to test our ALERT …

We caught up with GilpinEnvironmental’s Technical Manager Rob Burley to find out why they are supporting this trial… “It really is a great piece of kit with potentially some great applications.The ability to offer real time fibre monitoring could revolutionise the air monitoring associated with asbestos removal works. The main problem with leak testing for example is the time delay involved and, unless youhappened to be running a test when a problem arises, …
