The Renewable Corporation through its wholly owned subsidiary
EcoSmart Surface & Coating Technologies, Inc. receives results
from Asbestos Testing
LAKE PARK, Fla., June 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- EcoSmart Surface
& Coating Technologies, Inc. ("EcoSmart") a wholly owned
subsidiary of The Renewable Corporation received test results on
its asbestos encapsulation process. The test was conducted by Wendy
Blasser MSPH, a Florida Licensed Asbestos Consultant with CIH and
Environmental Consultants, Inc. from Boca
Raton, Florida.

An excerpt from the results of the study is as follows,
"It is well documented that asbestos fibers may be released from
the surface of vinyl asbestos floor tile as a result of normal wear
and tear. This study has demonstrated that the application of
EcoSmart's Surface Pre-treatment and Activator reduces the asbestos
surface contamination from moderate to non-detectable in one sample
and low in the second sample. After application of the base
coat the asbestos surface contamination dropped to non-detectable
in both samples. It is clear that the surface of the vinyl
asbestos floor tile has been successfully encapsulated in this
study."
"Vinyl Asbestos Tile" ("VAT") was the material of choice for
institutional flooring applications from the 1950's through the
1980s. These floors have now reached the point of deterioration
where hazardous asbestos fibers are being released. Until now, to
extend the life of these buildings, costly and unsafe demolition
has been the preferred method of preventing the release of airborne
fibers.
Gary Smith the CEO of The Renewable
Corporation states, "Demolition alone can cost $1.00 - $10.00 per sq. ft., not to mention the
HazMat fees and high costs of disposal in a hazardous materials
landfill. Additionally, the amount of paperwork needed to comply
with OSHA, State and EPA regulatory guidelines that vary from state
to state can be overwhelming. EcoSmart has developed a product that
can resolve this major issue globally in a cost effective
manner."
Current solutions including covering the floors with carpet,
carpet tiles, peel-and-press and other coverings do not completely
encapsulate the asbestos and do not prevent further damage to the
already failing tiles and mastics underlying those surfaces. Some
of the issues with replacing VAT flooring with traditional methods
include: disturbing the existing flooring and releasing hazardous
fibers, current solutions have low life cycles and present a high
preparation and maintenance cost, current solutions also may not
completely encapsulate/encase the surface and other products do not
seal existing seams that harbor bacteria.
EcoSmart's initial projects are to seal and encapsulate
hazardous materials such as asbestos haunting older government and
private buildings. The process will save substantial construction
cost and downtime. EcoSmart's flooring system will create a
permanent monolithic chemical bond with the existing surface.
Application also requires less energy consumption, generates little
waste and is safer and less disruptive than conventional processes,
as the asbestos material does not need to be removed.
