Brazil Chemical Sector Report 2021-2025

Accounting for 3.3% of total global chemical sector revenues, Brazil was the sixth largest global chemical market in 2019. Throughout the year, the Brazilian chemical market grew its share in the global chemical sector’s revenues by 0.7pp y/y, whilst the global sector’s revenue contracted by 3.4% y/y to USD 3.9tn. In 2020, Brazil’s chemical sector generated net revenues worth USD 101.7bn, a contraction of 14% y/y. The negative results came despite the sector’s production increasing by 1.4% y/y and revenues in local currency expanding by 10.2% y/y. As the Brazilian real lost value against the US dollar and other currencies, local chemical manufacturing companies had negative financial results in USD. The industrial chemicals sub-sector suffered more than the end-use chemicals sub-sector from FX variations, as industrial chemicals are heavily exposed to international trade.​
