NOTICE: THIS LETTER CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR KUBIC™, K2™ AND SURFACE™ COLLECTION LIGHT FIXTURES

Dear Valued Customer:

Your safety is important to us. Recently, GINGER® discovered that in some instances the glass shade of certain GINGER® light fixture collections was not manufactured to proper specifications, and as a result, it is possible that the shade could separate from the fixture base and fall. This potential problem affects only certain Kubic™, K2™ and Surface™ collection light fixtures. Due to the fact that these units do not meet its high quality standards for its products, GINGER® has determined to conduct a voluntary recall.

While the risk of injury is remote, because your safety is our first concern, GINGER voluntarily notified the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC") of this problem, and initiated a program to contact customers like you, who may have purchased one or more of the potentially affected light fixtures. A list of models included in GINGER’s voluntary recall includes:
