nsulators worked daily with materials that were installed to provide protection from temperature extremes. In many cases these materials were made with an insulating material called asbestos that is now a known carcinogen responsible for thousands of diagnosed cases of mesothelioma each year. Many workers in this trade belonged to a Heat & Frost Insulators and Allied Workers union. We have compiled a partial list of these unions for your reference.
