Poll: Should more companies stop using silica?
A benchtop manufacturer is voluntarily banning silica from its workplaces so staff don’t have to worry about lung disease.
AGB has six factories across the country, including one in Te Rapa, Hamilton, and had already stopped working with high-silica engineered stone as the spotlight came on links with irreversible lung disease silicosis.
Do you think more companies should do what AGB's doing? Tell us why in the comments (please include NFP if you don't want your comments used in print).
