Tile Setters & Mesothelioma

Tile Setter Asbestos Exposure Risks

Tile setters compile tiles to create intricate designs in buildings and homes. When tile setters sand, drill, cut, scrape or remove a tile containing asbestos, the particles are distributed into the air and inhaled.

Tile setters who were exposed to these asbestos products are at a higher risk of developing mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases.
