Beyond China: Save Big on Packaging with 0% Tariffs

As a foodservice provider, you're likely aware of the growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly packaging options. With China's tariffs on packaging materials, it's essential to explore alternative solutions that not only reduce waste but also support American Companies.
At AMS•COMPOSTABLE, we specialize in providing high-quality, compostable, and disposable packaging products as alternatives to plastic and foam. Our eco-friendly solutions are designed to meet the needs of foodservice providers, reducing carbon footprint and waste.
The Impact of China's Tariffs on Foodservice Packaging
Research on China's tariffs has reached a critical stage. The preliminary determination, announced on March 7, 2025, has triggered provisional measures, including the imposition of a cash deposit for imports of affected goods. However, it's essential to note that this is not a final decision, and the implementation of formal tariffs depends on the final determination by the Department of Commerce (DOC) and the International Trade Commission (ITC).
The current tariffs stand at 45% plus a 6.38% preliminary bond for anti-subsidy.

Antidumping Timeline:
- Preliminary determination: March 7, 2025
- DOC final determination: July 21, 2025
- ITC final determination: September 4, 2025
- Issuance of tariff order: September 11, 2025 (if both DOC and ITC issue an affirmative final determination)
As of 03/07/2025, Chinese imports of paper-fiber products, including packaging materials, are subject to a combined tariff of 51.38% (45% tariff + 6.38% bond for anti-subsidy).
