Sprayed Limpet Asbestos

Sprayed Limpet Asbestos was a very successful product produced in the UK and sold world-wide. This is a list of structures where SLA was known to be used, organized by country.

In many countries, such as Brazil and India, the industry has denied that sprayed asbestos was ever used. The reason for their 'amnesia' is that the spraying process was extremely dusty and therefore very dangerous.
