Geopolitical Storms Crushing Your MedTech Supply Chain? Build an Unsinkable Ship with PT-MedTech
(How Smart OEMs Are Bypassing Tariffs, Securing Market Access & Slashing Costs via Dual-Hub Manufacturing)
The Crisis Hitting Your Bottom Line (July 2025 Update)
Global MedTech supply chains are under siege. Ignore these shifts at your peril:
l EU-China Trade War:
· EU tenders >€5M now cap Chinese content at ≤50%
· China retaliates: Bans EU firms from projects >¥45M (unless they manufacture locally)
l U.S. Tariff Tsunami:
· 30% duties on EU/Mexican imports | 50% on copper/steel/aluminum
· $47B in medical trade disrupted overnight
l ASEAN "China+1" Meltdown:
· ASEAN hit with 20–40% U.S. tariffs
This isn’t just politics - it’s profit erosion. If your supply chain isn’t geopolitically agile, you’re losing:
· Market access to China’s $170B procurement goldmine
· Margin control as metal tariffs gut profitability
· Compliance speed amid EU MDR/IVDR delays (74% of launches stalled)
