GeoDeck Recall Old News
(Does not effect our current clients)

 

In keeping with our policy of transparency and complete honesty, I wanted to keep all of my visitors up to date on the latest information concerning GeoDeck... even if it is old news.

During the period from April 2002-October 2003 Kadant (GeoDeck manufacturer) produced several batches of GeoDeck that were deficient in antioxidants which in turn accelerated degradation of the material in some cases. From my research I have discovered several things worthy of note:

The manufacturer has always stood behind its warranty for this fine product. To my knowledge, if and when a product was found defective in any way, the manufacturer had it replaced at their expense* and without hassle. Isn't that refreshing.

They did this without government pressure or intervention... unlike some other composite manufacturers that have been loathe to accept responsibility.

Kadant took action and fixed the problem in October 2003.

This recall should not effect any of our current clients because their materials were manufactured long AFTER October 2003.

*On 7/20/07 I spoke with Teresa at Kadant (781 270-0624) and was informed that they will replace GeoDeck materials if found defective or make a monetary settlement but will not cover labor. Though labor was apparently never covered in their written warranty, it was covered for my one and only warranty issue.
