We look forward to to the growth and success of this vital industry.

On the 27th of February 2024, Morecroft and the Equapac team departed from Tarawa to Banaba to remove ACM from the abandoned Hospital and junior secondary school. It is worth mentioning that the clean-up process has been supported by SPREP and MELAD in Kiribati, given the extensive use of asbestos by the British Phosphate commission, the former phosphate mining island administrator.

Banaba, known for phosphate mining in the mid-20th century, extensively used Asbestos Contaminated Materials in its buildings and infrastructure during that time. Equapac team has successfully removed 26 tonnes and 76 cubics of ACM from the abandoned Banaba general hospital and the elementary school, which is now scheduled to be disposed of in a licensed facility in New Zealand.
