At Romla Fans, we are very familiar with cross-border transit, international shipping, and tariffs with our factory in Tijuana, Mexico and our office in San Diego, California, our team members and products cross the border every day. This extensive experience allows us to quickly adapt to fluctuating conditions, including the ever-changing tariff situation. Our team is constantly monitoring the situation, and we are doing everything that we can to maintain our shipping schedules and minimize the impact of any tariffs on our customers.
Romla Fans sources materials from multiple suppliers and regions. We have seen first-hand that disruptions like price increase in the supply chain can lead to exponential cost increases further down. All the way to the end consumer. Businesses that use limited supply chains feel a greater impact when there is a disturbance like a tariff. That is why companies with flexibility and access to alternative supplier options are in better shape.
We source our industrial fan and ventilation components from a variety of trusted suppliers in various locations for just this reason. Our raw material suppliers, who provide things like sheet metal, motors, rubber, etc., are diversified for just this reason. This set-up enables us to adjust to supply chain disruptions by sourcing from the most cost-effective place at any given time.
Pay the Tariffs or Pay the Fines.
Tariffs have a ripple effect across the economy. Especially when the tariffs themselves are constantly changing. This state of flux can lead industrial property owners to postpone ventilation maintenance and upgrades to avoid the extra costs. Unfortunately, this comes at the expsense of the workers’ well-being and productivity. Furthermore, these delays can lead to greater expenses as more states institute fines for indoor heat regulation violations. Now companies may have to pay more by not installing new ventilation equipment. Even more than the prices with the tariffs.
