Environmental products and services
A major priority for Mexico is water and wastewater treatment infrastructure.
- Private operators already treat almost 40% of treated municipal wastewater in Mexico. The Mexican government provides funding for most of these plants.
- Environmental investment forecasts to the year 2025, indicate Mexico needs to invest nearly US$5 billion to modernize irrigation and improve water and wastewater treatment systems.

- Public water and waste utilities and operators
- Government agencies [federal, state and local]
- State-owned entities, e.g., PEMEX [petroleum] and CFE [electricity]
- Private industry [domestic and international environmental engineering and construction companies]
