Update from T.M. Cobb: “As you are all aware, the global trading environment is rapidly evolving.

As a direct result of these tariffs, we will be increasing prices on all Therma Tru products. Please note, if any additional tariffs are imposed, further adjustments may be necessary. We urge everyone to be cautious with any long term commitments in price. Rest assured, we are closely monitoring the situation and will share any pertinent information as it becomes available.

From Jeld-Wen: “As you are likely aware, several tariffs have been announced on goods imported into the U.S. Many of these tariffs impact materials used in the manufacturing of JELD-WEN products. Due to the recently imposed tariffs beyond JELD-WEN’s control, it is necessary for JELD-WEN to implement tariff surcharges on affected products beginning March 18, 2025. The surcharge will vary across product lines. Your sales representative will provide details on surcharges in the coming days. As tariff activity continues to fluctuate, we are committed to adjusting the surcharge when the tariff impacts change, resolve, or have been mitigated. We will continue to monitor all tariff activity and communicate updates to you. For additional details or questions, please reach out to your sales representative.”
