2026 Q1 Tariffs Quickie Survey, published by PMMI – The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, examines how members are managing recent tariff changes and benchmarks Q1 2026 responses against prior quarter. Deployed in Q2 2025, the Quickie Survey draws on member responses and charts to provide comparative context. Analysis indicates key focus areas: tracking and intelligence (monitoring via business news, industry resources, or consultants), cost impacts and pricing strategies (rising procurement costs for imported and domestic parts and approaches such as surcharges or line-item quoting), supply-chain resilience (dual sourcing, diversification and relocation), and commercial effects on sales cycles and customer relationships; charts highlight these emerging patterns. The report reveals where manufacturing leaders are prioritizing investments to protect margin and agility.
Published by PMMI in April 2026. Based on a PMMI membership Quickie Survey (survey) of 62 member respondents collected Q2 2025–April 2026.
