Each person in construction is a cog in the ever-moving machine.
The Construction Cogs Podcast is a construction and engineering podcast that speaks to those cogs, from workers and specialists to contractors, leaders, and business owners, to explore careers, site life, safety, technology, infrastructure, and what really keeps the industry moving.
In this episode of The Construction Cogs Podcast, I’m joined by Kirsty Budenbender, co-founder of DSK Environmental.
Kirsty shares how she built the business with her family, what asbestos removal really involves, and why she believes there still is not enough education around asbestos, especially for homeowners, schools, and people working in construction.
We also get into the practical side of the work, including decontamination, due diligence when hiring a contractor, and the reality of industrial maintenance in waste-to-energy plants and shutdown environments.
Kirsty also explains why asbestos awareness matters so much to her, the support available through Mesothelioma UK, and her ambition to make a real difference through the work she does.
Mesothelioma UK charity event: Thursday 2 July at Kent Science Park, Sittingbourne, ME9 8PX, from 11.30am to 1.30pm.
