Hello all,
I was clearing my parents shed out yesterday and came across something that my dad said was fibre board. However, I didn't think much of it to begin with but after picking up the three separate pieces and then moving them out into the garden, I started to wonder whether they contained any asbestos.
I've uploaded some pictures of them. My father obtained them years ago from an old workplace that used to use them as 'pin boards' in the office. My father was a mechanic and these boards would have been used in the side offices adjacent to the workshop.
I'd really like to get some feedback on what the boards might be. I know that it's impossible to tell whether something is asbestos or not just by looking at it but I've had dealings with the AIB type before (had it all professionally removed by a contractor) and isn't that stuff usually like an off-white/grey colour?
Thanks in advance
