The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) is calling on the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) to exempt Brazilian bleached eucalyptus kraft pulp (HTS code: 4703.29) from potential Section 301 tariffs, warning that the material is indispensable to the U.S. tissue industry and cannot be purchased domestically at commercial scale. The group submitted its comments as part of USTR’s ongoing investigation into Brazil’s trade practices.
On September 3, USTR will hold a public hearing to gather further testimony on these issues and assess how Brazilian laws may be restricting fair market access for American firms.
AF&PA’s urges that eucalyptus production is extremely limited, with viable growing areas confined to small regions in coastal California and Hawaii, which cannot meet industrial-scale demand.
The association holds that imposing tariffs on Brazilian pulp would harm U.S. manufacturers by raising input costs, reducing profitability, and undermining the competitiveness of American-made tissue products.
Trucking activity in the United States slipped again in April as the freight market remained choppy early in the second quarter. Specifically, truck freight tonnage decreased 0.3% after contracting 1.5% in March, according to the American Trucking Associations’ advanced seasonally adjusted For-Hire Truck Tonnage Index. “After surging 2.8% in February, and hitting the highest level since late May 2024, tonnage fell a combined 1.8% in March and April,” said ATA Chief Economist Bob Costello. “Unfortunately, a recovery that was expected this year hasn’t transpired as the industry deals with a freight market in flux from tariffs and softening economic indicators.” In April, the ATA advanced seasonally adjusted For-Hire Truck Tonnage Index equaled 113.0, down from 113.3 in March. The index, which is based on 2015 as 100, was up 0.1% from the same month last year, the fourth straight year-over-year increase, albeit the smallest increase over this period.
