US President Donald Trump said on Monday that he applied 10 percent of tariffs for imported wood and lumber and 25 percent of duties on kitchen cabinets, bathroom toilets and upholstery, continuing his tariff attack on global trading partners.
The action is the first in three sectors, which, according to Trump last week, will be new cool duties on October 1, including patented pharmaceutical imports and heavy imports of trucks. The proclamation on Monday establishes the beginning of manuals on lumber and furniture two weeks later, at 12:01 east of October 14.
Trump signed the presidential proclamation stated in his argument that the import of wood, lumber and furniture was destroying the US national security in order to justify new responsibilities in accordance with section 232 of the 1974 trade law.
The growing use of Trump in section 232 occurs when he expects the Supreme Court of Decree on the legality of his wider “mutual” tariffs at global trading partners, which the two lower vessels removed.
The proclamation stated that the tariff rates will begin on October 14, but added that the duties will increase on January 1, 2026, to 30 percent for the uproots of wooden products and 50 percent for kitchen cabinets and vanity imported from countries that could not reach an agreement with the United States.
The proclamation of Trump says that the import of wood products weakened the US economy, which led to a constant threat of closing wooden mills and a malfunction of the wood supply chains and a decrease in the use of the US internal wood industry.
Lematerial power lines on the island of Mitchell along the Fraser River are still crazy, but there are fears that they may have problems. Last Friday, the US Department of Trade announced a big campaign for the duties for Canadian lumber for coniferous wood. Other anti -dumping fees were announced in July. This means that Canadian lumber is currently subject to duties of more than 35 percent. We are talking with Kevin Mason, managing the director of the Era Forest Products Research, which provides some context in the current trade dispute.
“The United States of the United States may not satisfy the requirements for wood products that are crucial for national defense and critical infrastructure,” the statement said.
The order added that wood products were used to “build infrastructure for operational tests, housing and storage for personnel and matter, transportation of ammunition, as an ingredient in ammunition and as a component in missile systems and thermal protection systems for vehicles of the nuclear reviewer”.
Pain for Canada, Vietnam and Mexico
The use of Trump Tariffs has become a feature of its second term, throwing new obstacles in enterprises that are already struggling with violated supply chains, soaring costs and uncertainty of consumers. His administration emphasized the surge of duties paid to the government execution.
The action is gaining more tariffs for Canada, the largest supplier of lumber in the United States, where manufacturers are already encountering combined anti-dumping and anti-ibsid tariffs about 35 percent due to a long-term dispute collected from Canadian public lands.
The Federal Government, which hopes to agree on a reduction in US tariffs due to a wider renewal of the Canadian-Ssha-Mexican agreement for 2020 in trade (CUSMA), said that it would provide up to 1.2 billion dollars to help Canadian producers of lumber for chemical trees to cope with previous duties.

Mexico and Vietnam grow suppliers of wooden furniture in the United States after Trump has struck Chinese furniture products with tariffs up to 25 percent during its first period, starting in 2018 – the responsibilities that have since been raised to about 55 percent and can now almost double for the cabinets and vanity.
Trump's proclamation proposed some countries that have concluded trading transactions with a decrease in tariffs from the United States.
It said that the US tariffs for wood products from the UK will be limited by 10 percent, and tariffs from the European Union and Japan will be limited by 15 percent – rates in accordance with the base tariff in these framework agreements.
But Trump’s statement did not mention his trading transaction with Vietnam at the 20th percent tariff rate in July, an agreement that has not yet been officially documented.
In April, after the Department of Trade opened the investigation of national security into the import of US lumber, the US Chamber of Commerce announced any restrictions on the import of wood, lumber and their derivatives, including wooden cellulose, paper and cardboard.
“The import of these goods is not at the risk of national security,” the chamber wrote. “The introduction of tariffs for these goods will lead to an increase in expenses for American enterprises and the construction of a house, undermines the export success that the US paper industry uses, and will reduce income in many US communities.”
