Eternit or concrete?

[Vickinho]

Found this inside the wallpaper on an interior wall. Does anyone know if it is eternit?

 

[Daniel Barnaniel]

Can almost bet my life that it is eternit

 

[Fotografen]

Yes, it is probably asbestos cement.

Says like the others, definitely looks like eternit.

Has there been a stove in front?
For fire safety, Eternit plates were placed on the wall behind a stove to protect against radiant heat.

 

[Vickinho]

There is a chimney running through the house that is nearby, so there has probably been a stove there.

Eternit if it was not installed after the 1970s. It usually has some non-combustible fibers sticking out at the fracture edges.

Sales of products containing asbestos in Sweden (with the exception of brake pads for vehicles) were banned in 1982.
