Asbestos concern in wall blocks

[steve p7]

I’m currently rewiring a property and chasing out walls. Never seen this type of block before which contains small wood chip? Anything to worry about?

Asbestos was not used in blocks

 

[steve p7]

Thanks, do you know what that type of block is called?

Lignacite

Thanks so pretty safe to work on?

What does the manufacturer's H&S documentation say?

 

[steve p7]

I don’t have that information. The building is probably 50 years old

Awful blocks plaster-cohesion wise. Always find the plaster delaminated behind rad's etc.
