Tariff-Free Heat Presses: How to Avoid Price Hikes and Delays in 2025

If you’re an apparel decorator shopping for a new heat press, now’s the time to think about how tariffs could impact your bottom line. Recently, U.S. tariffs on imported steel and aluminum have doubled, raising real concerns about rising equipment costs and shipping delays. For decorators relying on overseas-made equipment, these added costs and uncertain lead times could mean frustrating slowdowns. The solution? Choose a heat press that’s made in the USA.
