Luna mirror Tariff

Dear Valued Customer,

See below message from Bill Rankel VP of Sales regarding Luna Lighted Mirror price increase due to tariffs.  In addition, since the catalogs will not be reprinted you may want to advise the showrooms to make a copy of the attached excel sheet to keep in their binders.

As always, thank you for your support.

Good afternoon All,

Many customers have come back and said they do not like seeing an additional line on confirmations for the tariff on lighted mirrors.  Therefore effective today Fleurco has raised the list prices on all Luna lighted mirrors in our system 7% to reflect the tariff.  See attached letter.  Catalogs will not be reprinted as tariffs can change at any time.

Build a shower on our website will be updated by Monday so customers can use that to see the updated list price on lighted mirrors starting then.

Any questions please contact me.

Metal Sink Pricing Update

Good morning all,
Disregard the pricing on the metal sink sheet I sent out on both the Alabaster and Ironstone categories.  The pricing is always the same as the Marble or Solid.  No difference in price between materials.  Sorry for the confusion!  Have a great weekend!

Tariff Surcharge Effective Date – November 1, 2018

October 15, 2018

Dear Valued Emtek Customer,

As we notified you on October 2nd, a large majority of Emtek’s products have been affected by the tariff imposed by the US Government on September 24th.

Effective Thursday November 1, 2018, Emtek will apply a 3.7% surcharge to the Net Invoice amount for all products with the exception of Cabinet Hardware (identified on pages 6-52 in the October 2018 Cabinet & Bath Hardware Price Book).

This surcharge will help to offset a portion of our cost increases – and will remain separate and transparent from our published list prices. As the tariff situation changes, we will adjust or remove the applied surcharge on applicable products as necessary. We will communicate any changes as far in advance as possible. Our aim is to minimize the impact on your business.

We greatly appreciate your business and patience during this time.

Sincerely,
EMTEK Products

[NOTICE] Upcoming Price Changes

To Our EWS Family,

I am sure you all know that there is some uncertainty in US and foreign markets regarding trade and tariffs. Many sources of raw materials, energy, parts and manufactured goods have already felt the impact and no doubt you have already seen or anticipate price increases for various products in many categories.

All EWS, Inc./Environmental Water Systems water filtration and treatment products have and always will be designed, manufactured and assembled in the USA. This decision was made years ago to ensure quality control, uninterrupted supply and has also added to our stability in costs and pricing.

I am very proud of the fact that EWS has only had 7 price increases over the last 32 years. It speaks to our quality, service and efficiency. In our 2018 pricing, which became effective December 31st, 2017, we had price decreases on some of our most popular products and developed more aggressive stocking programs and tiered discounts to encourage and reward realistic quantity purchases.

Even though tariffs on foreign goods and materials do not directly affect any EWS product, our vendors are feeling the economic pressure and have announced price increases to EWS that we can no longer absorb or control.

We have never done across-the-board increases. We will be making targeted price adjustments only and announcing these targeted increases (from 5% up to 11%) by November 1st, which will be effective as of December 1st, 2018.

Before you panic, we want to let you know that some key product will still be lower than 2015-2017 pricing. For example, the Max Flow and EWS Whole Home product, even with the slight price increase coming in December, will still be below 2015-2017 pricing.

There will be no inventory disruptions compared to the instability others may be facing with foreign supply chain issues.

New price sheets will be available to all purchasing associates as of November 1st. Revised EWS Summary Product and List Price Guides will available to update all EWS binders throughout November.

The entire EWS crew and I appreciate your continued support and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call us.

Best,
Howard
President/CEO

Correction to V & A 2018 Price list

Dear Valued Customer,

Victoria & Albert has discovered that the drain is listed incorrectly for the Pembrooke tub which is on page 06 of the price book.  It is showing the K-51-xx for the accessories but that is a typo.  It should list the K-50-xx as the correct drain for that tub.  Please make correction to your price book.

Thanks in advance.
