NEW LONDON, N.C., Aug. 11 /EMWNews/ -- This past week, Louisiana

Pacific(R) (LP) notified Fiber Composites, LLC of its intent to publish a

Potential Safety Hazard for decking, railing and accessories manufactured

by LP at its Meridian Idaho manufacturing plant. Formal release of this

notification occurred August 7, 2008 and included instructions for

customers who purchased these products to contact LP for information.



    Products involved in this upcoming notification were marketed under the

trade names LP WeatherBest(R) and Veranda(R) by LP prior to Fiber

Composites' acquisition of the Meridian Idaho manufacturing plant and

WeatherBest brand in November 2007. LP's announcement noted that only those

decking and railing products manufactured from 2005-2007 by LP are the

subject of this advisory. Products manufactured by Fiber Composites under

the WeatherBest brand are not included in the product advisory.



    Immediately after acquisition of the WeatherBest brand and the

Meridian, Idaho facility, Fiber Composites(R) made important product

formulation changes that were performance proven and promoted under the

fiberon(R) brand for many years. Fiber Composite product formulations are

designed with proper material content and extensive additive enhancements

that insure longevity and performance of its decking products resulting in

over a decade of solid integrity in backyards across America.



    Fiber Composites, LLC will continue to bring industry leading

innovation, products and marketplace leadership to the composite decking

industry. Information about Fiber Composites can be found at
