Strong Growth in Pharmaceutical and Food Processing Industry Fuels South & Central America Dust Control or Suppression Chemicals Market

The Brazilian pharmaceutical industry has advanced significantly in the past few years. A limited number of international pharmaceutical industries operate through manufacturing facilities in the country. However, several US-based companies are expanding their manufacturing operations to Brazil due to factors such as vicinity to the mass market, lower material costs, economic connections, and low labor expenses. Furthermore, the increase in the production of generic, over-the-counter medicines and government strategies for rising domestic investments are key factors responsible for the development of the pharmaceutical industry in Brazil. As per the International Trade Administration, Brazil is among the top six pharmaceutical markets, reporting US$ 16.37 billion worth of sales of drugs and pharmaceuticals in 2021, a rise of 14.26% from 2020. The development of the pharmaceutical industry boosts innovation and creates a conducive environment for conducting clinical research in the country. Pharmaceutical processes such as active pharmaceutical ingredients production, tablet presses, tablet coating, spray drying, and granulation lead to dust formation.

According to the Brazilian Food Processors' Association, the Brazilian food processing sector generated revenue of US$ 208 billion in 2022, a rise of 16.6% compared to 2021. The Brazilian food processing sector involves 38 thousand companies, of which both small-sized and medium-sized industries accounted for the majority of concentration. Dust control or suppression is a significant aspect of food processing from both food safety and employee health perspective. The presence of dust in the processing environment can cause sanitation concerns, microbial contamination, health issues, and other hazards. Food processors also adhere to regulations for controlling food processing dust by several government and international authorities such as the Food and Drug Administration, United States Department of Agriculture, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Thus, strong growth in the pharmaceutical and food processing industry is projected to create lucrative opportunities for the dust control or suppression chemicals market.
