Market Growth Factors – 

Led by the automotive sector, the ABS market in Brazil is projected to grow owing to several factors. Sales in this sector increased by 15% in 2024 to 2.6 million units, including cars, light commercial vehicles, trucks, and buses. Examples of ABS use in automobile parts include surveillance and dashboard panels, as well as a car exterior. Its strength and cosmetics make it attractive for this use. The projected growing popularity and market share of electric and hybrid cars, which are set to outnumber internal combustion engine cars by 2030, also requires lightweight ABS.

As the automotive industry expands and per vehicle ABS demand increases, investment in the industry in 2024 stood at US$29.63 Billion: US$21.40 Billion from manufacturers and US$8.23 Billion from parts suppliers.

The construction sector also promotes the use of ABS. In 2024, it grew to BRL 707.59 Billion through a 5.1% increase by infrastructure policies and renewable energy generation and storage projects. Residential constructors built 17.3% more in 2024, after they reduced construction by 4% during 2023. In December 2023, the average price for buildings was 1,722.190 BRL/m² (≈ USD 347.31/m²). This led to a demand for high-quality building materials like ABS.

Consumer electronics and plastics manufacturing are expected to continue expanding in scale, with large appliance manufacturers based in China, such as Midea Group and TCL Technology Group, investing heavily in local R&D and manufacturing within. ABS is a lightweight, heat resistant, and durable thermoplastic used in laptop casings, TV frames, and smartphone casings. Growth to 2033 will be driven by government investment in industry development and further domestic production.
