To Our Valued Customers,
The U.S. government has officially implemented a 25% tariff on imported aluminum, which will directly impact the cost of boat docks, lifts, and other aluminum products. Since most of our aluminum comes from Canada, these tariffs will drive up material costs in the coming months.
Why Is This Happening?
According to the White House, aluminum imports from Canada have surged 18% since 2015. In response, the U.S. is imposing tariffs to support domestic production. However, for industries that rely on high-quality Canadian aluminum—like marine construction—this means significant price increases (whitehouse.gov).
What Does This Mean for You?
✔ Aluminum prices are climbing – Delivery fees for aluminum in the U.S. have already jumped 65% this year(wsj.com).
✔ Supply shortages are growing – Industries are rushing to secure materials before prices rise further.
✔ Boat docks and lifts will cost more – As aluminum costs increase, so will the price of marine products.
What Can You Do?
Right now at Bellfy Aquatic Engineering, we still have aluminum at pre-tariff prices—but not for long. Once our current inventory runs out, prices will rise to reflect these new tariffs.
If you’re thinking about upgrading your dock or boat lift, now is the time to buy before costs increase. Lock in today’s pricing and protect your investment before the tariffs take full effect.
Call us today or request a quote to secure your dock or lift before prices go up!
See you on the water!
