With tariffs on imported steel rising, businesses across Canada are facing higher costs for warehouse storage solutions. If you’re looking to invest in pallet racking, now is the time to consider the advantages of choosing domestically produced systems. As a Canadian-owned and operated company, the NAS Group manufactures all racking locally, ensuring superior quality, reliability, and long-term savings.
Why Are Imported Pallet Racking Costs Rising?
Many businesses have turned to imported pallet racking systems in the past, enticed by seemingly lower upfront costs. However, the landscape is shifting. With rising tariffs on foreign steel and increasing shipping expenses, those cost advantages are quickly disappearing. What used to be a budget-friendly choice is now becoming an unpredictable investment. It often comes with hidden costs, such as longer lead times, expensive modifications to meet Canadian safety standards, and limited access to replacement parts. As tariffs on imported steel continue to rise, this option becomes a less reliable choice for businesses looking for long-term value.
