What depends on them
American goods affected
19 essential American goods have Iran somewhere upstream in their supply chain.
Materials
Asphalt and paving materials
Road asphalt is a crude oil refinery byproduct; infrastructure and maintenance costs track oil refining margins.
Agriculture
Fertilizers and crop inputs
Nitrogen, phosphate, and potash fertilizers for U.S. crop production.
Energy
Electricity (residential)
Residential electricity service for lighting, appliances, and HVAC.
Energy
Natural gas (home)
Residential natural gas for heating, cooking, and hot water.
Materials
Glass and windows
Flat glass for construction windows, auto windshields, containers, and specialty applications.
Materials
Sulfuric acid
The world’s most-produced industrial chemical and a keystone input for phosphate fertilizer, battery-metal (nickel/cobalt) leaching, copper hydrometallurgy, and broad chemicals. Largely a BYPRODUCT of metal smelting and oil/gas desulfurization, so supply structurally falls as smelters close and fuels get cleaner — even as battery and fertilizer demand surge.
Materials
Cement and concrete
Energy-intensive construction material; clinker production is geographically concentrated and coal-dependent.
Home
Paper and household products
Toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, and other disposable household paper goods.
Grocery
Dairy and eggs
Milk, cheese, yogurt, and eggs used as core household staples.
Home
Tableware & dishware
Plates, glassware, and flatware in ceramic, glass, and stainless; China leads, with European premium brands.
Food
Coffee
Imported arabica and robusta beans; price tracks Brazil weather, Vietnam output, and ocean freight.
Agriculture
Potash and phosphate fertilizers
Potassium and phosphorus nutrients for crop nutrition; geographically concentrated supply chains.
Food
Seafood and fish
Fresh, frozen, and canned seafood; U.S. imports ~85% of consumed volume from Asian aquaculture, Norway, and South America.
Home
Pet food and supplies
Dry and wet pet food, treats, and essential pet care supplies.
Food
Condiments, sauces & dressings
Ketchup, hot sauce, soy sauce, and dressings; domestic plus Mexican, Italian, and Asian imports.
Digital
Palladium and platinum group metals
Palladium, platinum, and rhodium used in catalytic converters, electronics multilayer capacitors, fuel cells, and medical devices.
Materials
Paint and architectural coatings
Architectural and industrial paints tied to petrochemical resins, titanium dioxide pigment, and solvent supply.
Energy
Gasoline and diesel
Retail gasoline and diesel fuel for personal vehicles and freight.
Food
Sugar
Cane and beet sugar with crop output, trade policy, ethanol demand competition, and weather sensitivity.
