The group of silicate mineral fibres known as asbestos was used extensively for construction purposes in New Zealand. Raw asbestos wasn't banned until 1999 and asbestos-containing materials weren't banned in NZ until the end of 2016.

Biohazardous waste arising from chemotherapy cancer treatment is known as cytotoxic waste. Steam sterilisation is not applicable to cytotoxic waste, so WM Technical Services facilitates the safe and secure export of this waste stream to Australia for high temperature incineration.
