Poland asbestos removal subsidies

Overview

Poland continues its nationwide effort to eliminate asbestos waste by 2032 through various municipal subsidy programs. In late August, Gmina Stary Lubotyń signed an agreement to remove and neutralize 109 tons of asbestos-cement roof coverings in 2026, a project co-financed by the Provincial Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management in Warsaw. In Szlichtyngowa, the Mayor announced a call for applications for the 2026–2027 period, with a submission deadline of September 17, 2026, supported by the Provincial Fund in Zielona Góra.

By early September, additional local initiatives were launched. In Barwice, the municipality opened an application process for dismantling and disposal costs, with a deadline of September 11, 2026, contingent upon securing funds from the Voivodeship Fund in Szczecin. In Nowa Sól, residents can apply for subsidies to address asbestos in roofs, facades, balconies, and ventilation ducts until September 20. These programs emphasize that removal must be conducted by professional companies to prevent the release of microscopic fibers linked to respiratory diseases and cancer.
