IFAT Brasil
IFAT, the world's largest environmental technology network, returns to Brazil in 2025 with the second edition of IFAT Brasil. Scheduled for 25-27 June in São Paulo, the event aims to boost the growing market for environmental technologies in Brazil and Latin America.
The Dutch water sector organisations will exhibit their technologies and innovations at the Netherlands Lounge.
IFAT Brasil & water
Approximately 35 million people do not have access to treated water in Brazil, while almost 100 million people do not have access to sewage treatment. Brazil’s goal is to provide 99% of the population with drinking water and 90% with sewage treatment by 2033. Over the next decade, Brazil's sanitation sector will experience rapid development thanks to the Government's privatisation strategy and stimulus projects. Private investment will drive tremendous growth in the market for environmental technologies, such as the collection, treatment and distribution of water, as well as the collection and treatment of sewage and solid waste. In this dynamic environment, IFAT Brasil will be the main platform to connect market participants and promote the use of environmental technologies in Brazil and the entire region.
The trade fair and the water market will benefit from IFAT's international network of connections, with its events in Europe, Asia and Africa, and will be fundamental to achieving the Brazilian Government's objectives in the areas of drainage, waste management, water and wastewater management by 2033.
