Warning Trends
Reciprocal tariffs to increase prices and supply chain risk in the medical equipment industry
- The Trump administration’s reciprocal tariffs, which impose increased general tariffs on all products imported from most nations, are set to take effect on August 7 after rates were finalized on August 1.
- The US medical equipment industry is highly reliant on imported products, with medical equipment imports totaling $122 billion in 2024, or about 19.2% of the total market supply.
- The European Union, Mexico, and China are key importers of medical equipment, accounting for 28.1%, 11.0%, and 9.6% of total medical equipment imports, respectively.
- Thus, the 15.0%, 25.0%, and 54.0% tariffs on imports from the European Union, Mexico, and China will significantly increase the prices of medical equipment. Steel and aluminum imports, common materials in medical equipment manufacturing, also currently face 50.0% tariffs when imported from any nation other than the United Kingdom.
- The Yale Budget Lab projects that key inputs for medical equipment, such as electronic components, metals, plastic, and rubber, will increase in price by 10.4% to 37.6% due to tariffs, indicating domestic producers will face sharp cost increases as well.
United States announces new tariffs on all imported steel
- In February 2025, the United States announced 25.0% tariffs on all imported steel with no exemptions or exceptions. The tariffs took effect on March 12, 2025. On June 4th, these tariffs were increased further to 50%. These tariffs were not impacted by a recent court decision that temporarily suspended duties on certain goods as they were implemented under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act.
- Previously, countries such as Canada, Mexico, and Brazil, the top exporters of steel to the United States, had exemptions from tariffs. These have now been removed and all imported steel, regardless of origin, will be subject to the 50.0% tariff. However, on May 8th, the US announced an agreement with the United Kingdom to remove all levies on steel exported from the UK.
- When tariffs on steel imports were introduced in March 2018, they contributed to an increase in the price of steel and steel products. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the price of steel-milled products increased by 10.2% in the year after the tariffs were implemented. This market heavily relies on steel as an input and may be impacted by this policy.

Vendor & Supply Chain Analysis
There is a moderate level of risk to vendors. In addition to senior adults with restrained mobility, convention centers, shopping centers, and retailers are among the main buyers of mobility scooters; each of these buyers faces different types of risk.
The mobility scooters market exhibits a low level of market share concentration. The low level of market share concentration is favorable for buyers because it encourages fierce price competition among suppliers, imposing downward pressure on prices, however, rising merger and acquisition activity among suppliers has slightly driven up market share concentration.
There is a very high level of risk associated with the supply chain for mobility scooters, which harms buyer power greatly due to supplier instability. Raw material availability has fluctuated greatly in previous years, and considering steel is a main component in mobility scooter manufacturing, supply chain risk has affected mobility scooter availability and exhibited high industry volatility.
As a net importer in the mobility scooters market, US buyers' procurement strategies may be influenced by factors such as cost considerations and international competition and will need to carefully evaluate pricing options and potentially seek out more cost-effective solutions. Being a net importer can restrict buyer power and reduce their ability to dictate terms and conditions in procurement transactions, and will have less control over pricing, quality, and availability of the goods or services they need.
