Thousands of homes located in certain states in the midwest and the south, including Alabama, Louisana, and Florida, are contaminated with Chinese Drywall. Due to the construction boom a few years ago, many contractors purchased drywall from manufacturers in China. This drywall gives off sulfurous odor when heated, causing homes to have a rotten egg like smell and often times results in turning the coils of air conditioners to become black. In addition, the toxins from the dryall causes appliances to fail. This drywall not only causes damages to homes, resulting in reconstruction work to the walls, but also causes health hazards to the occupants. Many people have reported physical symptoms associated with this type of drywall, including dizziness, headaches, fatiuge, irritation to the skin and eyes, and respiratory problems. At least one of the companies that is known to have manufactured this tainted dry wall is Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin - -its drywall is stamped with the product label, "Knauf-Tianjin." Consumer Product Saftey Commissions have received thousands of complaints. If you would like more informaiton about the litigation associated with this harmful product, plesae contact Schlichter, Bogard & Denton.
