Asbestos mill board (which is similar to cardboard) was often used as a heat protective lining to ovens.
Asbestos paper was commonly used as an insulation product and can be found in heaters and around pipes.
It can also be found in damp course (see also Bitumen) on the underside of lino and PVC tiles and inside metal fire-doors where it acted as a soundproof fireproofing agent.
It was often used in libraries and bank vaults as a fireproof lining for boxes.
