<abstract displayLabel="Summary">Objectives: To review the scientific literature on the health effects of refractory ceramic fibres. The adverse effects of exposure to asbestos has led to concern about the potential for other fibrous materials to cause diseases. For this reason the human populations most heavily exposed to synthetic mineral fibres have been examined for any adverse effects and many types of fibre have been studied in animal experiments</abstract>
