About the Duffy-Mott Company
The Duffy-Mott Company to this day is a major manufacturer and distributor of applesauce, apple juice, and apple products. Over the last century, they have operated large food processing facilities in New York employing thousands of employees in production, maintenance, and support roles. Mott facilities and equipment could have both contributed to asbestos exposure of their employees.
Asbestos Exposure at Duffy-Mott
Workers at Duffy-Mott Company may have been exposed to asbestos by:
- Working with boiler and steam systems used in food production for cooking and sterilization.
- Working around pipes, valves, pumps, gaskets and other equipment components containing asbestos.
- Working with bottling and canning equipment that required insulation.
- Working in buildings containing asbestos in their flooring and ceiling materials, or walls.
- Performing maintenance on a building or piece of equipment
When asbestos fibers become airborne, they can be inhaled or ingested. These microscopic fibers can then lodge themselves into the tissue of surrounding organs and years later cause mesothelioma or lung cancer.
Who is at risk of developing mesothelioma or lung cancer?
Once asbestos fibers become airborne, they cannot be contained. Anybody in the proximity of plant operations could have been exposed to asbestos and especially:
- Workers involved with washing, cooking, and packaging apple products
- Boiler operators
- Cleaning crews
- Warehouse staff
- Maintenance workers
- Office workers who worked around the production plant
- Family members who washed their loved one’s clothes after work at Duffy-Mott
There is no safe level of asbestos exposure. Any amount of exposure can cause disease.
