US tariffs on steel | 09.10.2025

When steel becomes more expensive, every label counts twice

The tariffs pose major challenges for the global steel industry. Rising prices, disrupted supply chains and mounting cost pressures are taking an equal toll on steel manufacturers, processors and suppliers alike. In such a situation, where every pound and process step counts, efficient and reliable labelling becomes a decisive factor.

This is why labelling is now more important than ever
As material costs rise, so do demands for transparency and efficiency in production. Companies need to be able to track exactly which batch was processed, transported or delivered, and when. This is the only way to optimise processes, avoid errors and reduce costs.

This is where S+P Samson comes in. As specialists in industrial labelling solutions, we support our customers in maintaining their ability to act, even in times of high uncertainty.

Traceability creates security
Seamless traceability is essential today, particularly in the steel industry. Our label solutions clearly document every step of the production and delivery process. This creates security and trust among customers and partners.

Smart labelling for greater efficiency
Our weatherproof plastic labels and barcode/RFID solutions clearly identify batches, materials and finished products, even under extreme conditions such as heat, cold or humidity. This ensures that data and information remain reliably legible and accessible.

Responding flexibly to new requirements
Trading conditions and production processes can change at short notice. That's why we develop flexible labelling solutions that can be quickly adapted to new standards, transport routes or information requirements.

Staying resilient together
We cannot influence global market conditions. However, we can support the industry in becoming more resilient and emerging stronger from the situation. Our solutions help keep costs under control, secure processes, and make quality transparent.
