Imapct of Trumph Tariff on Electronics and Electrical Industry

In 2025, global trade has entered a period of renewed volatility as the U.S., under President Donald Trump, introduced sweeping tariffs known as the Liberation Day Tariffs. Aimed at addressing trade imbalances and foreign supply chain dominance, the tariffs range from 10% on allies like Australia and the UK to 46% on Vietnamese goods and 34% on Chinese imports. A 25% universal tariff on steel, aluminum, and auto parts has further strained global trade ties. The electronics sector is among the hardest hit, particularly due to the escalating U.S.China trade war. Tariffs on Chinese goods now reach up to 145% in sectors like semiconductors and consumer electronics, while China has retaliated with up to 125% duties and restrictions on critical mineral exports. This has disrupted just-in-time supply chains and increased component costs.

Specific tariffs include 25% on semiconductors, 20% on lithium-ion batteries, and 10–15% on consumer electronics like laptops and tablets, leading to higher retail prices and reduced consumer demand. Sub-sectors such as home automation, computer hardware, communication electronics, medical devices, and industrial electronics are all under pressure due to rising input costs and supply chain delays. Companies are revisiting suppliers, shifting sourcing to countries like India, Mexico, and Vietnam, and redesigning products to avoid high-tariff components.

China remains a key player, contributing USD 119 billion in electronics exports to the U.S. in 2023. Even components routed through countries like Malaysia and Vietnam often rely on Chinese subparts, making the ripple effect of tariffs widespread. U.S. electronics firms operating on thin margins are seeing input costs rise 18–25%, with contract manufacturers in alternative regions facing capacity constraints.

Market research is now critical. It helps companies identify new suppliers, analyze cost trends, optimize product design, forecast demand shifts, and track regulatory changes. Tools like supplier mapping, BOM optimization, and scenario planning support strategic responses to ongoing disruptions. Leading firms like Apple and Dell are expanding production outside China, while others invest in digital supply chain tools and redesign products for cost resilience. In this evolving trade environment, firms that leverage research-driven strategies are better positioned to adapt and thrive.

North America Electric Iron Market held the highest market share of 32.15% in 2021!

Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR in the electric iron market during the forecast period
North America held the highest market share of 32.15% in the year 2021. This can be attributed owing to high spending capacity as well as a high working population. Further, in U.S., Canada, and Mexico, there is 100% accessibility to electricity which automatically stimulate the high purchase of electrical products.

However, during the forecast period, APAC is significantly growing at a high CAGR owing to the rise in disposable income. Further, countries like India, China, and Japan have a higher number of working populations. The working women population is also rising which induces high usage of electric iron. Moreover, the fashion industry in these countries is booming which has stimulated high usage of electric iron at commercial places.

Electric Iron Market Analysis

By Type, Traditional iron segment has the highest market share in the Electric Iron market!

Traditional iron has been used by a large chunk of population mostly for residential purposes. In this type of iron, the steam boiler is located directly on the iron itself. Further, they are comparatively cheaper in price and it is of simple design consisting of a metal plate and a dial for temperature adjustment. Basic dry iron is available to buy online as well as offline.

However, the market is seeing a shift recently from traditional iron to steam generator iron. It is becoming a popular choice by people. These models of iron boxes come with small tanks to hold water. During the ironing process, this water is converted to steam and sprayed on the cloth. The amount of steam to be sprayed on a cloth depends on its type. Steam irons have a small outlet through which the steam is sprayed on the cloth. Moreover, they have control switches to regulate the steam spray depending on the type of cloth. Hence, steam irons are widely popular and are better than basic types of irons.

Electric Iron Function Segment Analysis

Ironing is a common process in every household to remove wrinkles from clothes. But it’s the technology that keeps on changing and upgrading the tool for its easy and convenient use. Automatic electric iron has a thermostat switch to regulate the heat to a predetermined value. When the predetermined value of the temperature is reached, the thermostat switch automatically disconnects the electricity supply and reconnects the same when the iron starts cooling down.

Hence, demand for automatic electric iron is high in comparison to non-automatic due to their safety benefits.
