As the landscape of international trade shifts with the 2025 tariff regulations, many industries are seeking clarity on how these changes are influencing supply chains, lead times and overall product availability. For print consumables manufacturers, such as United Industries, understanding the implications is essential for strategic planning and maintaining customer trust. So let’s address some common questions regarding the 2025 US tariff adjustments and their impact on UltraBoard products and service:
Is the 2025 US tariff change disrupting United Industries’ supply chain?
Largely no.
Although every manufacturer has seen at least some minor shifts in 2025, United Industries has minimized potential disruptions thanks to its long-standing strategic sourcing approach. As a company, we primarily rely on domestic suppliers for key raw materials and components, reducing dependence on international imports that are most affected by the tariffs. This sourcing strategy ensures us a more stable supply chain, allowing us to meet customer demands without significant delay or price spikes.
Does UltraBoard’s manufacturing process help mitigate the impact of tariff changes?
Absolutely.
UltraBoard’s manufacturing process and inventory management enable us to adapt quickly to most supply chain fluctuations. Our proactive planning, coupled with strong domestic supply partnerships, allows us near continuous production, helping us maintain supply even amid changing tariffs.
Will the tariffs lead to increased costs for UltraBoard products this year?
Not likely.
We work hard to avoid passing along cost increases. While tariffs can influence raw material costs, UltraBoard’s primarily domestic sourcing strategy has helped minimize the direct impact. Any cost adjustments to date have been carefully managed through efficiency improvements and strategic inventory management. As a result, we expect stable pricing for UltraBoard products in the second half of 2025, providing consistency and confidence to our customers.
What does the future look like for UltraBoard amid these tariff changes?
The future looks bright.
Our commitment to domestic production, strategic supplier relationships, and continuous innovation position UltraBoard as a reliable choice in the print consumables market. We are optimistic about growth opportunities and are investing in expanding our product offerings and enhancing operational efficiencies to serve our customers better.
Can customers and partners remain confident in UltraBoard’s stability moving forward?
Without a doubt.
UltraBoard’s resilience lies in our proactive approach to supply chain management and our focus on meeting or exceeding customer needs. As we look to the second half of 2025, we are confident that UltraBoard will continue to deliver high-quality products reliably, maintaining our reputation as a trusted partner in the print consumables industry.
