Pectel Group In Exclusive Asbestos Technology Deal

Pectel Group, a leading asbestos removal company, has signed an exclusive license agreement in the UK and Ireland, with US market leading waste management technology developer, ARI Technologies Inc, for their Thermochemical Conversion Technology.

This innovative technology, invented by ARI Technologies Inc, eradicates asbestos fibres through a thermal and chemical process and results in a 60-80% reduction of waste volume.

This ground-breaking thermal and chemical technology process is revolutionary in that it costs less than half of other conversion processes available in the world that melt the waste.

We believe that their experience and knowledge coupled with our expertise in the technological process will bring life changing benefits to the UK and Ireland."
