NAICS Code 423390-03 Description (8-Digit)

The Asbestos & Asbestos Products (Wholesale) industry involves the distribution of asbestos and asbestos-containing products to various customers, including construction companies, manufacturers, and other wholesalers. Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was widely used in the past due to its heat-resistant properties. However, it has since been linked to serious health risks, including lung cancer and mesothelioma. As a result, the use of asbestos has been heavily regulated in many countries, including the United States. Despite this, there is still a demand for asbestos-containing products in certain industries, such as automotive and construction.

History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 423390-03 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • Asbestos has been used for thousands of years, with evidence of its use in ancient Greece and Rome. However, it wasn't until the Industrial Revolution that asbestos became a popular material for construction and manufacturing due to its heat-resistant properties. The use of asbestos peaked in the mid-20th century, with the United States being the largest consumer of asbestos in the world. However, the health risks associated with asbestos exposure became more widely known, and the use of asbestos began to decline in the 1970s. Today, the use of asbestos is heavily regulated in many countries, including the United States. In recent history, the United States has seen a significant decrease in the use of asbestos due to the health risks associated with exposure. In 1989, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a ban on most asbestos-containing products, but the ban was overturned by a federal court in 1991. Since then, the use of asbestos has been heavily regulated, and many industries have moved away from using asbestos-containing products. However, asbestos is still used in some products, such as brake pads and insulation, and there are still concerns about the health risks associated with exposure to asbestos.
