### [2025 Tariff Changes: What Your Business Needs to Know](https://blog.warehousedirect.com/wd-solutions-blog/2025-tariff-changes-what-your-business-needs-to-know)

As your complete workplace solutions partner, we want to keep you informed about upcoming federal tariffs that may affect pricing across multiple industries and product categories.

On March 12, 2025, new government tariffs will take effect, leading to industry-wide price adjustments across all suppliers and manufacturers. These changes extend beyond just steel and aluminum, affecting various raw materials and finished products. Here's what businesses need to know:

Federal Tariff Changes:  
• Primary materials tariffs (including steel and aluminum): 25% on imports  
• Expanded import duties across multiple categories  
• Additional country-specific trade adjustments  
• Changes affecting both raw materials and finished goods

Potential Areas Impacted:

These government-mandated changes may affect products across all workplace categories and suppliers.
