FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WILMINGTON, Delaware (USA) — Solenis LLC, a global provider of water and hygiene solutions, announced today it will temporarily apply a minimum 5% surcharge on all products and services sold in the United States, effective May 1, 2025. This action is a direct response to rising costs tied to global trade policy changes, including a 145% tariff on China-sourced goods and new global baseline tariffs at or above 10%.
The temporary surcharge is intended to offset these external pressures without compromising product availability or service quality.
“We know our customers are focused on controlling their costs,” said Ed Connors, Chief Business Officer, Americas. “Our goal is to minimize the impact while continuing to deliver strong value and a dependable supply to our customers.”
Solenis is taking steps to minimize the burden on customers, including:
“We will continue to monitor global trade conditions closely. Should trade pressures ease, we are prepared to reassess the surcharge accordingly,” added Connors.
