Commerce Department Approves New Tariffs on Tinplate Steel Imports

US President Defends Tariffs Following Appeals Court Ruling

The U.S. Department of Commerce has recently approved new tariffs on tinplate steel imports from several countries including Canada, China, Germany, and South Korea. Tinplate steel is a key component in the manufacturing of tin cans and various consumer goods. This decision follows a request from Cleveland-Cliffs, an Ohio-based steel company and a major domestic producer of tinplate steel.

Cleveland-Cliffs had initially requested the Biden administration to impose tariffs of up to 300 percent on tinplate steel imports from eight countries. This request was part of a tariff-petition process that focuses on protecting domestic industries. However, concerns were raised about the potential impact of such high tariffs on other sectors of the economy, particularly those dependent on tinplate steel.

Various industries and organizations, including the Consumer Brands Association (CBA), which represents over 2,000 companies like Campbell Soup Company, expressed concerns about the impact of the proposed tariffs. The CBA estimated that the tariffs could increase the cost of canned food products by about 58 cents. Additionally, a study by Trade Partnership Worldwide LLC, a pro-trade think tank, suggested that these tariffs could jeopardize 600 jobs for every steel-making job they aimed to protect.

The recent announcement by the Commerce Department has been met with mixed reactions. The department’s decision did not include tariffs on tinplate steel imports from the Netherlands, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom, and the approved tariffs on other imports are lower than what Cleveland-Cliffs had initially proposed. David Chavern, president and CEO of the Consumer Brands Association, stated that the final duty levels largely reject the higher tariffs proposed by Cleveland-Cliffs, which he believed would have negatively impacted consumers and domestic manufacturing jobs.

The decision by the Commerce Department is not the final step in this process. The International Trade Commission (ITC) must also approve the decision before the new tariffs are implemented. The ITC has heard testimony on the proposed tariffs and is expected to vote on the matter in its February meeting.

This situation highlights the complexities and debates surrounding trade policies, particularly in balancing the interests of domestic industries with broader economic considerations, including consumer impacts and the needs of other businesses.
