What We’re Doing About Tariffs

Last updated:

How We’re Handling Tariffs

Benco Dental has been closely monitoring the evolving tariff landscape and wants to share our understanding of the current situation with our customers. We are committed to transparency and will continue to keep you informed as conditions develop.

  • The tariff landscape remains fluid. Following the Supreme Court’s decision regarding IEEPA tariffs, additional tariffs have been implemented or modified under various legal authorities. Certain tariff-related matters also remain subject to ongoing litigation and government proceedings, creating continued uncertainty for the broader supply chain and import costs.
  • We are in active communication with our suppliers. Benco has been in direct contact with its manufacturer and supplier partners to understand their perspectives on tariff impacts, sourcing strategies, and pricing. We are working collaboratively to minimize disruption.
  • We are monitoring the situation and evaluating our pricing accordingly. Pricing during recent periods has been influenced by multiple factors — including fuel and transportation costs, supply chain disruptions, geopolitical developments, and tariffs — rather than any single cause. Benco will continue to assess the legal, regulatory, and commercial landscape as additional information becomes available.
