Recent changes to tariffs between Canada and the United States are beginning to affect the cost of certain products sold in Canada.
Effective September 8, 2026, Canada introduced new counter-tariffs on a range of U.S. origin goods. These tariffs apply to specific products based on their country of origin and classification, so not every product or U.S. brand is affected.
For the moment, brands affected include Argosy, Sound Anchors, and Space Lab , along with certain wireless products. This list may evolve as we receive updated pricing and information from our suppliers. You can also view the full list of products affected here.
For studio furniture affected by the new tariffs, Zaor remains a tariff-free option, with a wide selection of studio desks, stands and racks.
What This Means for Our Customers
Where possible, we intend to maintain our current pricing on inventory that was purchased before the new costs took effect. As new inventory arrives at higher replacement costs, however, pricing on certain products may need to be adjusted.
Because the pricing situation remains volatile and can change quickly, we have temporarily removed pricing from certain affected products on our website.
If you would like to know the current price of one of these products, simply click the "Get A Quote" button on the product page. Our team will get back to you with the most up-to-date pricing available.
This allows us to provide accurate, up-to-date pricing rather than displaying a price that may no longer reflect current supplier costs. More importantly, we want to avoid a situation where a customer goes through the purchasing process expecting one price, only to find out that it has changed due to a recent tariff or supplier adjustment. By asking you to request a quote on affected products, we can confirm the current price upfront and make sure there are no unexpected changes before you make your purchase.
To make things as clear as possible, products affected by the new tariffs will be identified with a tariff badge on the website.
This badge will appear directly on applicable product pages so you can quickly see when a product is subject to the new tariff-related pricing.
Current Stock, Current Pricing
Our goal is to minimize the impact wherever we can. If a product is already in stock and was purchased before a supplier price increase, we'll do our best to maintain that existing price rather than immediately adjusting it to the new replacement cost.
As a result, customers considering affected products may want to take advantage of current in-stock pricing before newly priced inventory arrives. We'll continue to monitor the situation closely and update our pricing only when necessary. If you have questions about the pricing or availability of a particular product, feel free to contact us.
