I am so glad I decided on this company.  The home inspector knew his stuff, and he explained the inspection report in a way that was clear.  I was able to negotiate my purchase and saved a lot of money.  Thanks for everything.        -  Karla P., San Diego

Tainted Chinese drywall manufacturers named
Blog
The list below identifies drywall manufacturers whose product produces emission rates of hydrogen sulfide 100 times greater than non-Chinese drywall samples.  Such levels are dangerous medically and corrosive chemically.
 
This list finally gives contractors and home inspectors, consumers and homeowners, who are experiencing problems with these various drywalls, names that they can look for if they can get a look at the back side of the drywall.

A CPSC press release lists the following manufacturers:
  • Knauf Plasterboard (Tianjin) Co. Ltd.: (year of manufacture 2005) China
  • Taian Taishan Plasterboard Co. Ltd.: (2006) China
  • Shandong Taihe Dongxin Co.: (2005) China
  • Knauf Plasterboard (Tianjin) Co. Ltd.: (2006) China
  • Taian Taishan Plasterboard Co. Ltd.: (2005) China
  • Taian Taishan Plasterboard Co. Ltd.: (2006) China
  • Shandong Chenxiang GBM Co. Ltd. (C&K Gypsum Board): (2006) China
  • Beijing New Building Materials (BNBM): (2009) China
  • Taian Taishan Plasterboard Co. Ltd.: (2009) China
  • Shandong Taihe Dongxin Co.: (2009) China
Write these lists down, and check your house.  And if you suspect that you have a problem drywall, make plans to eliminate it and everything in your house affected by it.
