“Sustainable innovations to drive the industry forward!"
Brazil remains the world’s 3rd largest market for toiletries, perfumes and cosmetics, behind USA and China. With sales of USD32.5 billion, the sector recorded a nominal growth of 11% last year, according to ABIHPEC. Despite the current weak economic situation in Brazil, companies continue to invest and expand in Latin America, tapping on future growth opportunities. Lubrizol has invested in a state-of-the-art multi-purpose reactor in Brazil to produce a wide range of secondary surfactants, Solvay chose Brazil to boost innovation in sustainable chemistry from Biomass and Stepan completed purchase of sulfonation production facility in Brazil this June.
Brazil’s growing middle class consumers care about the environmental impact of the products they buy. Consumer goods companies are increasingly offering sustainable and green products targeting a more sophisticated marketplace. It’s getting more challenging for brand-owners to source & determine what raw materials when formulating new products. Suppliers are continuing to innovate to stay ahead of the game. However, with the crude oil prices staying low, will the green trends continue?
Powder detergents are still the main format in Brazil. However, the market for liquids is growing and may very soon be ready for tablets due to increasing demand for convenience. Hear from Unilever Brasil who will expand on Compaction/concentration as a driver of sustainable development.
