- Over the medium term, factors such as increasing airborne diseases giving rise to growing consumer health consciousness and rising emissions due to industrial activities coupled with rising air pollution are expected to drive the brazil air purifier Market.
- On the other hand, despite the various technological developments, owing to the high price, installation, and maintenance costs of air purifiers are expected to restrain the Brazil air purifier market.
- Nevertheless, as Brazil grapples with rising GHG emissions, the emergence of innovations like smart air purifiers is poised to unlock numerous opportunities in the air purifier market over the coming years.
Brazil Air Purifier Market Trends and Insights
The High-efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Segment is Expected to Dominate the Market
- Mechanical air filters, like HEPA filters, capture airborne particles on their filter materials. These filters effectively trap larger particles, including dust, pollen, mold spores, and allergens from dust mites and cockroaches. In Brazil, where air quality is a persistent challenge, HEPA filter technologies have become indispensable, especially from a healthcare perspective.
- HEPA filters outshine electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) and ionizers in capturing airborne particles. While ESPs utilize electrostatic forces for particle removal, they also produce ozone. Ionizers, on the other hand, can cause particles to settle on surfaces. HEPA filters, characterized by their extended surface area, boast higher efficiencies in removing both large and small airborne particles. Furthermore, they outperform pleated filters in eliminating respirable particles. HEPA air purifiers typically adhere to two prevalent standards: the European Standard mandates a 99.95% removal rate for particles ≥ 0.3 micrometers, while the ASME Standard sets the bar at 99.97%.
- According to a 2024 report by Swiss IQAir, Brazil's rising PM2.5 levels underscore the urgent need for HEPA air purifiers. Data indicates that Brazil's annual average PM2.5 concentration climbed from 12.6 μg/m³ in 2023 to 14.9 μg/m³ in 2024. Alarmingly, the 2024 figure is two to three times above the permissible limit, fueling the demand for HEPA technology in the nation.
- In Brazil, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that lower respiratory infections ranked as the fourth leading cause of death, averaging 38.3 deaths per 100,000 individuals. This statistic underscores the growing demand for HEPA air purifier technology in the country.
- Respiratory diseases, notably Tuberculosis, have further spurred the demand for HEPA air purifiers in Brazil. WHO data reveals a rise in Tuberculosis cases, from 40 per 100,000 in 2020 to 45 per 100,000 in 2023. Those affected often find HEPA air purifiers essential for daily use.
- In June 2024, Ahlstrom Oyj made headlines with a EUR 2 million investment in a new laminator at its Louveira plant in Brazil. This strategic move expands Ahlstrom's South American product offerings, focusing on industrial air, liquid, and fuel filtration. Notably, these products were previously sourced from Europe and North America. The lamination process enhances filtration materials, leading to better efficiency, extended service intervals, and reduced energy consumption.
- Ahlstrom's investment is synchronized with upgrades to its Fine Fiber platform in Turin, which is set to produce HEPA filtration layers. By merging Fine Fiber media with molecular filtration materials, Ahlstrom aims to bolster protection against even the smallest particles. With such advancements, HEPA technology is set to dominate Brazil's air purifier market.
- Given the aforementioned factors, the High-efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) segment is poised to lead the air purifier market in Brazil during the forecast period.
Growing Air Pollution snd GHG Emissions will Likely Create Several Future Opportunities
- Brazil, one of the world's largest energy consumers, has been witnessing a gradual economic growth. In 2023, Brazil emerged as the world's 5th largest emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG), accounting for roughly 2.5% of global emissions. These emissions were predominantly driven by sectors such as agriculture, industry, power generation, and changes in land use.
- Data from the 2023 SEEG - Sistema de Estimativa de Emissão de Gases highlights that in Brazil, the sector contributing the most to GHG emissions was land use and forestry changes. This was followed by emissions from agriculture and livestock, energy, waste management, and industrial processes. In Brazil's energy sector, the majority of CO2 emissions stem from burning fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—primarily for power generation and fueling vehicles.
- According to the same 2023 SEEG dataset, the Brazilian state of Para topped the list for maximum GHG emissions, followed by Mato Grosso, Maranhao, Minas Gerais, Sao Paulo, and others. Given their high GHG emissions, these states are anticipated to dominate Brazil's air purifiers market.
- Moreover, in November 2024, Brazil made headlines by importing a staggering 900,000 metric tons of thermal coal—three times the monthly average for the year, as per ship-tracking firm Kpler. This spike in coal imports came on the heels of a persistent drought, which slashed hydropower output to a three-year low. Consequently, as the country approached its hottest months—typically a peak demand period for electricity—power producers faced dwindling fuel supplies. This intensified reliance on fossil fuels is set to push GHG emissions in Brazil's power sector even higher, further fueling the demand for air purifiers.
- Data from the European Commission EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) for 2024 indicates a rising trend in Brazil's GHG emissions. Emissions in 2022 were recorded at 1,298.49 million tonnes of CO2 equivalent, inching up to 1,300.17 million tonnes in 2023. This upward trajectory signals burgeoning opportunities for air purifier manufacturers in Brazil.
- In conclusion, the escalating air pollution and GHG emissions in Brazil present a promising landscape for the country's air purifier market.
