The
global water and wastewater market, valued at more than
$45 billion annually, represents significant opportunities
for U.S. businesses. This market has grown rapidly in
recent years and constitutes more than a third of the
worldwide environmental market. More than 300 private
U.S. companies already export water and wastewater equipment
and chemicals. U.S. companies have a competitive advantage
in several areas, because the special equipment they
produce cannot be obtained from other suppliers.
This
report contains strategies for improving U.S. industry
competitiveness in the global water and wastewater market.
It also outlines opportunities for U.S. companies in
12 "best prospect" countries. The strategies
draw upon key elements of successful exporting, such
as market information, overseas alliances, and export
financing. Appendices include descriptions and lists
of major international water and wastewater projects,
government and industry contacts, trade associations,
multilateral programs, and international trade shows.
