USTR modifies Section 301 Ships Action, proposes further modifications

The modifications and proposed modifications follow USTR requests for public comment made in Federal Register notices published on April 23, 2025 and June 12, 2025.
The Office of USTR recently announced modifications to certain aspects of the responsive action to restore American shipbuilding that it took on April 17 this year and solicited public comments on several proposed further modifications to that action.
The proposed modifications include adding a carve-out from fees for certain ethane and LPG carriers under long-term charter.
Significant aspects of the modifications include changing the basis for calculating service fees on vessel operators of foreign-built vehicle carriers and setting the fee at $46 per net tonne, as of October 14, 2025; eliminating, retroactive to April 17, 2025, a provision permitting the suspension of liquid natural gas (export licenses if certain restrictions on the use of foreign-built vessels are not met; and imposing 100-per cent tariffs on certain ship-to-shore cranes and cargo handling equipment.
The proposed further modifications to the responsive action taken in April include adding a carve-out from fees for certain ethane and liquid petroleum gas carriers under long-term charter; and imposing additional tariffs of up to 150 per cent on certain cargo handling equipment and components of such equipment.
While USTR evaluates public comments on these proposed further modifications, the payment of certain service fees may be deferred through December 10, 2025, as set out in the notice, a USTR release said.
The deadline to submit written comments on the proposed further modifications is November 12.

B-logic: five companies explore the future of sustainable denim

Published
October 13, 2025
Circulose, iTextiles, Labor Made, Neela, and The Lycra Company will unveil a centenary-inspired denim collection reinterpreted through the lens of sustainable fashion at the Kingpins trade show in Amsterdam on October 15 and 16.
Dubbed B-Logic (“be logical” in English), this line of nine menswear and womenswear silhouettes has been conceived, from fibre to finish, to address both sustainability and performance.
On the materials front, fibre specialist The Lycra Company has teamed up with Circulose, a Swedish group that recycles plant-based cellulosic textile waste into a new material. For this project, that material has been paired with bio-derived Lycra EcoMade fibre, which delivers performance comparable to the conventional Lycra fibre.
As for the other stages of the project, Pakistani manufacturer Neela wove the fabric and Japan’s Labor Made handled the creative direction, drawing inspiration from iconic denim pieces from 1929 and 1949. Impact measurement and optimisation were carried out by iTextiles.
The collection can be discovered at Amsterdam’s Sugar Factory, where Kingpins will welcome around 100 international denim specialists for this edition of the event.
