Description

In 2025, the Trump administration upended global trade with sweeping tariffs and a sharp turn from multilateralism to bilateral deals. U.S. duties surged to 155% on some Chinese imports, alongside broad reciprocal and sector-specific measures. While a few rates have eased, the protectionist course remains firmly set. We are once again at a pivotal moment.

• What lies ahead for global trade — and for the chemical industry in particular?
• How will the new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) initiative targeting chemical imports and intensifying enforcement actions further reshape the regulatory and trade landscape for the sector?

This webinar will explore the current state of tariffs and trade policy, and assess how evolving political, economic, and regulatory pressures may redefine the global trading system in 2026 and beyond.
