Asbestos is banned in the EU and US, but despite its devastating impacts, many countries continue to use it. Now, a Dutch company claims it can recycle asbestos waste and repurpose it as a toxic-free partial replacement for cement, for use in the construction industry. Globally, the asbestos market remains lucrative, valued at more than $1 billion in 2023. India is the world’s leading importer of asbestos, while the largest producer is Russia, by quite a margin.
