Saginaw Grey Iron Asbestos Exposure – What Families Should Know

For decades, the Saginaw Grey Iron Foundry in Michigan exposed workers to dangerous materials—especially Saginaw Grey Iron asbestos insulation used in pipes, machinery, and steam systems. This exposure has led to deadly illnesses like mesothelioma and lung cancer in both workers and their families.

If you or a loved one was employed at Grey Iron and later developed mesotheliomaasbestosis, or lung cancer, legal help may be available. You could be eligible for compensation through lawsuits or asbestos trust claims.


Asbestos Use at Saginaw’s GM Grey Iron Foundry

The foundry used high-temperature equipment that relied heavily on asbestos insulation. Asbestos was found in:

  • Pipe and valve insulation
  • Furnace linings and refractory materials
  • Gaskets and brake components
  • Steam systems throughout the plant

Maintenance workers, pipefitters, insulators, and machine operators were at particular risk. But due to airborne dust, virtually every department in the facility may have been contaminated.


Take-Home Exposure Risk

Asbestos fibers often traveled home on dusty work clothes. Spouses who laundered uniforms and children who hugged their parents after work may also have been exposed. This type of take-home asbestos exposure has led to mesothelioma diagnoses decades later in people who never worked in the plant.

If your family member worked at Saginaw Grey Iron and you’ve since been diagnosed with an asbestos-related illness, you may still have a valid claim.
