Pride in Canadian Design: FiberWood Facing New U.S. Tariffs

With the recent announcement of U.S. tariffs on a number of imported products, including building materials, the pride of being a Canadian design and local distribution company takes on a whole new meaning. FiberWood, a specialist in eco-friendly wood composite products, stands out in this turbulent context.

A Strong Canadian Response to U.S. Tariffs

The U.S. administration has officially implemented tariffs that are hitting imports from outside the U.S. hard, including those from Canada. These tariffs have prompted countries targeted by the U.S. administration to respond by also applying tariffs on many imported U.S. products. As of March 4, 2025, the Canadian government is imposing a 25% tariff on $30 billion worth of U.S. imports. This trade war is encouraging consumers and businesses to look for local, sustainable and economical solutions.

At FiberWood, we see this situation as an opportunity to reiterate the importance of Canadian know-how.
