[quote=Anonymous]Did you read the article where it talks about the levels being so high that traditional protective masks and water aren’t enough because of the volume of particulates with engineered stone vs natural. Way to be an ass.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not the countertops themselves, it is the lack of safety practices in the industry. Preventative measures to avoid silicosis are well-known.[/quote]

It is the countertops themselves. It used to catch up with men who were 60 or 70. Now it's happening to 20-YEAR-OLDS. Stop with your excuses. [/quote]

Gosh golly, I WISH there was some type of personal protective equipment that a young 20 yr old fabricator could wear that would effectively filter out 99.7% of the particulates generated by stone fabrication!! I just wish someone would patent something like that!!

Sigh. Maybe SOMEday ….
