According to a research report published by Decision Advisior & Consulting, the Brazil Water Purifier Market size is anticipated to reach USD 3.74 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 9.2% from 2025 to 2035. The Brazil water purifier market is driven by rising concerns over water contamination, increasing urbanization, growth in waterborne diseases, higher consumer awareness of safe drinking water, expanding middle-class income, and technological advancements in filtration systems that offer efficient, affordable, and convenient purification solutions.

Market Overview

A water purifier is a machine that cleans dirty or unsafe water. It removes germs, chemicals, and dust to make the water safe to drink. It uses filters or special cleaning methods so people can get clean, healthy, and good-tasting water at home or in offices. Additionally, Brazil’s water purifier market is growing due to increasing water contamination, rising cases of waterborne diseases, higher awareness about safe drinking water, rapid urbanization, better living standards, expanding middle-class income, and the availability of affordable, advanced purification technologies across households and workplaces. Additionally, global warming has exacerbated the country's water crisis, leading to reduced reservoir capacity and drought conditions in many regions. As a result, there has been a growing demand for water purification systems utilizing technologies like RO (Reverse Osmosis), UV (Ultraviolet) filtration, and other advanced filtration methods. This surge in demand is driven by deteriorating water quality and a growing lack of trust in municipal tap water. The need for water purifiers in Brazil is expected to rise in the coming years. According to the report of the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Program (JMP), 15 million Brazilians who live in urban areas lack access to safe water or drinking water free from external contamination. Only a small portion of safe water is available to 25 million people in rural areas, and it is often far from their homes.

Moreover, the Secretariat of Administration (SAD) took the initiative by replacing bottled water with water purifiers for the entire country. By replacing the bottles with a new water purifier, the solution has generated annual savings of USD 80,000. Therefore, this initiative has increased the demand for water purifiers across the country, and the demand will continue to grow in the upcoming years. For instance, In 2024, Brazil is looking for USD100 billion in investments to overhaul its water and sewage infrastructure, as reported by Correio Braziliense. The initiative aims to provide universal access to quality sanitation services across the country, regardless of income levels. Currently, around 30 million of Brazil’s 200 million citizens lack access to treated water, while 90 million are without sewage collection services. The government's ambitious goal is to achieve 99% coverage of potable water access by 2033.
