Throughout its nearly century-long existence, MAAHSA has stood out as a beacon of innovation in the industry. Its pioneering achievements have propelled its success and raised the bar for quality and sustainability in the market. Here, we present a list of milestones that place MAAHSA in a league of its own:

• First Paraguayan Industry to incorporate 100% pyrethroid-based actives in its insecticide formulations, providing high insect-knockdown power and low toxicity to humans and warm-blooded animals.

• First Industry globally to introduce the cutting-edge ETOC molecule into aerosol insecticide formulations, which is six times more effective than similar molecules, ensuring minimal toxicity to humans and warm-blooded animals.
  Currently, this molecule is also used in the production of Mapex mosquito-repelling tablets, using six times less active ingredient than other brands on the market to achieve the same effectiveness with reduced user toxicity.

• First Paraguayan Industry to offer bulk-format laundry and garment care products, such as powdered and liquid soap and fabric softener, in response to end-user needs and demands. This initiative is carried out under a renowned brand, strictly complying with legal regulations and promoting an ecological approach by encouraging container reuse.

• First and only Paraguayan Industry to manufacture and dry spirals in electric ovens with state-of-the-art drying processes, ensuring that the full insecticidal active remains in the product for maximum effectiveness against mosquitoes, including disease carriers like dengue, zika, and chikungunya. Other brands dry spirals using boilers, making it impossible to control temperature and, consequently, failing to guarantee maximum product effectiveness due to active ingredient volatilization.

• First and only Paraguayan Industry to utilize clean and renewable energy in the spiral production drying process.

• First Paraguayan Industry to produce low-foaming washing powder suitable for automatic washing machines.

• First Paraguayan Industry to manufacture washing powder with incorporated fabric softener, providing whiteness, softness, and fragrance to garments.

• First Industry globally to develop an oil-based larvicide repellent aerosol for the treatment and prevention of myiasis.
  
  
• First Paraguayan Industry to market dry environmental deodorant, which does not wet upon application, with smaller and lighter particles that linger in the treated environment, prolonging the pleasant aroma for more hours.

•  First Paraguayan Industry to include citronella in the formulation of mosquito-repelling tablets, working in conjunction with the insecticide to repel mosquitoes and aromatize the surroundings.

• First Industry in America and 5th globally to incorporate the pyrethroid active Pralle in the formulation, providing the most effective and immediate action against cockroaches while maintaining low toxicity for humans and warm-blooded animals. A clear example of this innovation is the Mapex Black Premium aerosol insecticide, which offers the fastest cockroach-knockdown action in the national market.

• First and only Paraguayan Industry to use the environmentally friendly SumiOne (Metofluthrin) pyrethroid active, offering 40 times greater potency than the d-allethrin active used by other spiral brands on the market.

• First Paraguayan Industry to create a floor cleaner with insecticide and citronella fragrance. This innovation is reflected in the Mapex Floor Cleaner.

• First Paraguayan Industry to incorporate sign language into its advertising campaigns.

• First Paraguayan Industry in the home and sanitary sector to obtain the "Marca País" (Country Brand) license.

• First Paraguayan Industry to use 100% biodegradable paper flow pack packaging for the upcoming launch of the Arthe natural bathing soap.

The list of achievements presented here firmly establishes MAAHSA as an indisputable leader, continuing to illuminate the path toward the future.

Latin America, a region that has experienced steady growth in aerosol production, bore witness to one of the most significant industry events on September 13th and 14th, 2023: the 11th Latin American Aerosol Congress. This congress, gathering key industry players, provided a unique platform for knowledge sharing, product showcasing, trend discussions, and exploration of the latest innovations in the world of aerosols.

The aerosol industry in Latin America has achieved impressive figures in recent years, reaching a production volume of 2.7 billion units in 2021. This consistent growth reflects the importance and potential of the industry in the region, making events like the Latin American Aerosol Congress crucial for its ongoing development.

The trade exhibition that was part of the congress provided aerosol industry suppliers with an opportunity to present their products, technologies, machinery, and services. It served as a showcase for innovation and a platform for establishing vital business connections. MAAHSA, as an innovative company, seized this opportunity to highlight its commitment to excellence and quality in aerosol manufacturing.

In addition to the exhibition, the congress also hosted a series of conferences where professional and technical experts from around the world shared their knowledge.

Representatives from MAAHSA attended the congress with the aim of analyzing emerging trends and the latest market innovations, demonstrating their interest in staying at the forefront of the industry and contributing to its sustainable development.

The Paraguayan industry MAAHSA has successfully participated in the "EXPO ALADI – Cuba 2023, Multisectoral Business Roundtable," which took place from October 2nd to 4th at the PABEXPO Convention Center in Havana, Cuba.

In an exciting ceremony held on October 11, 2023, at the facilities of the Importers Center (CIP) in Paraguay, the Chamber of Advertisers of Paraguay (CAP) revealed the much-anticipated results of the 2023 Brand Ranking. Among the outstanding brands, MAAHSA enthusiastically celebrated the victory of MAPEX, as the most appreciated insecticide in the country for the ninth consecutive year.

The awards ceremony, attended by executives and partners of the CAP, was the perfect setting to highlight the excellence of MAPEX, solidifying its position as the undisputed leader in the insecticide market in Paraguay. The recognition was the result of a meticulous research study conducted by Metro, a company specialized in brand studies and the advertising sector in general.

This report stands out for the rigor in selecting variables to determine the winning brands. In the case of MAPEX, its success was based on three fundamental pillars: recall, usage, and preference. These criteria not only highlight the effectiveness of the product but also the trust and loyalty it has built among Paraguayan consumers.

The extensive coverage of the study and the inclusion of various economic sectors emphasize the relevance and impact of the MAPEX brand in the daily lives of citizens. From households to commercial spaces, MAPEX has become synonymous with protection against unwanted insects, earning the preference of users throughout the country.
