A Critical Asbestos Removal Project in the Heart of Boston
We recently completed a significant asbestos abatement project at Delta Terminal B in Logan Airport, Boston, MA. This complex undertaking showcased our expertise in handling hazardous materials within a high-traffic, sensitive environment. Our team’s dedication to safety, efficiency, and professionalism was evident throughout this challenging airport renovation project.
The Scope of the Asbestos Abatement Project
The project at Logan Airport’s Delta Terminal B involved the removal of various asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) across multiple floors and rooms. Our experienced team tackled a diverse range of ACMs, including:
- Yellow and black adhesives on the 2nd floor (Room A)
- Black adhesive associated with floor tiles in several areas
- Various types of floor tiles, including tan 12″x12″ tiles and off-white 12″x12″ tiles
- Grey floor tiles on concrete
- White caulking in the West stairwell
- Grey pipe elbow insulation in the 2nd floor mechanical closet
This comprehensive asbestos removal project covered approximately 4,832 square feet of flooring materials and 60 linear feet of caulking, demonstrating Banner Environmental’s capacity to handle large-scale abatement tasks.
Specialized Techniques for Safe Asbestos Removal in an Airport Setting
Banner Environmental employed advanced asbestos abatement techniques to ensure the highest level of safety for both our workers and airport personnel. Our approach included:
- Utilizing a negative air HEPA filtered workspace to prevent the spread of asbestos fibers
- Implementing a 3-stage decontamination unit for thorough cleaning of personnel and equipment
- Adhering to strict containment protocols to isolate the work areas from the rest of the airport
- Employing specialized tools and equipment designed for efficient asbestos removal
These methods not only guaranteed the safety of everyone involved but also minimized disruption to the airport’s daily operations.
Overcoming Challenges in a High-Security Environment
Performing asbestos abatement in an active airport terminal presents unique challenges. Our team had to navigate:
- Strict security protocols and clearance procedures
- Coordinating work schedules to minimize impact on flight operations
- Managing the removal and disposal of hazardous materials within a busy airport setting
- Ensuring clear communication with airport authorities and Delta Airlines representatives
Banner Environmental’s experience in handling complex projects allowed us to overcome these obstacles efficiently, maintaining our commitment to safety and quality throughout the abatement process.
The Importance of Professional Asbestos Abatement in Public Spaces
This project at Logan Airport underscores the critical need for professional asbestos management in public facilities.

This showcases Banner Environmental’s versatility in handling multiple aspects of environmental remediation and construction services.
