The Combustion Engineering 524(g) Asbestos PI Trust was created to compensate people alleged to have been harmed by the asbestos products of Combustion Engineering. The existence of the trust reflects the resolution of the company’s asbestos liabilities in bankruptcy.

The Company and Its Bankruptcy

Combustion Engineering, another major boiler maker, resolved its asbestos liabilities through a Chapter 11 reorganization filed in 2003 and an associated 524(g) asbestos trust.

The Asbestos Products

According to asbestos litigation records, Combustion Engineering allegedly built utility and industrial boilers, superheaters, and refractory products (including Super 3000 refractory mortar) that allegedly used asbestos insulation, gaskets, and refractory.

What the Trust Covers

The trust pays qualifying claims from people alleged to have been exposed to Combustion Engineering boilers, refractory, or insulation. Like other asbestos trust funds, it evaluates claims against its own published medical and exposure criteria and pays a scheduled value adjusted by a payment percentage. Whether a particular exposure history qualifies — and which trusts and defendants it may reach — is a case-specific question best evaluated by an experienced asbestos attorney.

Claims Are a Matter for an Experienced Attorney

Determining whether the Combustion Engineering 524(g) Asbestos PI Trust applies to your situation, gathering the product-identification evidence involved, and pursuing a claim are not do-it-yourself tasks — they are the work of an experienced asbestos attorney, who can investigate an exposure history and identify every trust and defendant it may reach (a single history commonly reaches several).
