Quigley/Pfizer

Quigley/Pfizer employees exposed to asbestos

Specializing in manufacturing refractory materials, whose purpose is to withstand extreme temperatures, Quigley was another company that used asbestos during the last century. Because it has remarkable heat and fire resistance, asbestos was the raw material of choice for the majority of companies producing refractory materials before the 1970s. The occupations at the highest risk of developing a serious disease as a result of the asbestos exposure which occurred by either working at Quigley/Pfizer or working with their products are:

• industrial workers
• construction workers
• remodelers

Considering the fact that asbestos-related diseases may take a long time to develop, it's extremely important that anyone who has a history of asbestos exposure regularly monitor their health. In the interest of promoting the importance of early diagnosis, we are offering screenings free of charge for Quigley/Pfizer employees.

Secondary asbestos exposure, a serious concern for the family members of Quigley/Pfizer workers

Due to their microscopic size, asbestos fibers can easily spread through the environment. Thereby, it should not come as a surprise that numerous family members of former Quigley employees developed the same diseases direct asbestos exposure is notorious for, as workers did not have to change their clothes before leaving the facility at the end of the day. They would carry asbestos fibers on their clothes, as well as on their skin and in their hair, which would later wind up in their home. Usually, women would inhale toxic dust while shaking out the clothes before washing them, whereas children would breathe in asbestos fibers upon greeting their father. Today, up to 10% of the deaths asbestos causes are the result of secondary exposure.
