At Molde Matos, we have been following with respect, but also with concern, the developments in the tariff measures recently applied by the United States to imports from the European Union.
As an industrial company with strong transatlantic trade relations, we recognize the right of each country or economic bloc to define its own trade policy. However, we cannot help but express our concern regarding the impact these measures may have on the balance of international relations and the competitiveness of companies that, like ours, are governed by high standards of quality, innovation, and cooperation.
These new trade barriers are expected to negatively impact business volume with some of our American partners. Despite this, Molde Matos remains committed to finding joint solutions that mitigate the effects of these changes and preserve long-term business relationships, supported by mutual trust and the added value of our services.
We will continue to focus on close relationships with our clients, flexibility, and the search for alternatives that ensure the continuity of ongoing projects, always committed to maintaining the highest levels of quality and performance. More than ever, we believe that dialogue and collaboration will be essential to overcome this moment with responsibility and a vision for the future.
