Asbestos Exposure in Alabama

Alabama Imperial Oil Refinery

From Mobile to Huntsville, Alabama, there were several industries where people were commonly exposed to asbestos, including eight power generation plants, six steel and iron mills, four oil refineries, two marine construction and repair sites, Kimberly-Clark pulp and paper mill plants, and cement asbestos company plants. 

Factories, mills, and refineries used asbestos-containing products in processing and production, exposing their employees and customers to these harmful fibers.

Many buildings in Alabama, such as government buildings in Mobile and NASA facilities in Huntsville, were constructed using asbestos before it was regulated in the 1970’s due to known health risks. 

Workers at these sites listed below are at greater risk of developing mesothelioma and lung cancer. Unfortunately, many of the families of workers at the sites listed below also have an increased risk of developing cancer because of the asbestos fibers that were carried home on the body and clothing of those workers.

Statistics for Mesothelioma Cases in Alabama

To this date, more than 700 mesothelioma and asbestos-related deaths and thousands of lung cancer diagnoses have been reported from Alabama. That number ranks the state of Alabama 22nd in the United States on deaths caused by mesothelioma.
