This adhesive manufacturing company was founded in 1887, initially as Fuller Manufacturing Company. In 1915, the company became H.B. Fuller Company and started its road to become one of the most important adhesive producers and distributors in the world. The H.B. Fuller Company is one of the many companies guilty of using asbestos in some of their products. This led to many claims against H.B. Fuller from workers affected by asbestos exposure.
Claim EvaluationDuring the last century, H.B. Fuller Company made use of asbestos in large amounts, as the mineral has numerous convenient properties, such as excellent resistance to fire, electricity and a wide range of chemicals. Furthermore, it was also very cheap at the time. Specializing in the manufacturing of adhesives, H.B. Fuller Company was no exception when it came to knowingly exposed their workers to asbestos. As one of the leading adhesives producers worldwide during the last century, the company is responsible for jeopardizing the health of thousands of workers, who were oblivious to the dangers of occupational asbestos exposure. The occupations at the highest risk of developing a serious disease as a result of exposure to the asbestos products of this company are:
Nowadays, a considerable number of former H.B. Fuller Company employees are struggling with serious types of lung disease – such as asbestosis or pulmonary fibrosis – as a consequence. However, since it usually takes between 10 and 50 years for a disease to develop, early signs are often difficult to spot and, to make matters worse, they also mimic the symptoms of less severe conditions, such as asthma or pneumonia.
If you developed one of the following cancers as a result of occupational exposure, you are eligible for compensation. If you are too ill, a family member can help you with the legal process. In the unfortunate event that you pass away before recovering compensation, your surviving family members will receive compensation on your behalf.
Lung Cancer MesotheliomaIf, however, you struggle with non-cancerous pleural diseases such as asbestosis, pulmonary fibrosis, pleural plaques, pleural effusion, diffuse pleural thickening, COPD (emphysema & chronic bronchitis), pleurisy, lung nodules, lung spots, asthma, pneumonitis, tuberculosis, rounded atelectasis or lung scarring, please seek a second or even a third opinion as the rate of misdiagnosis is very high among the victims of asbestos exposure.
