E.E: What can you tell us about key ceramics market trends in India?

The ceramics industry is poised for rapid growth in the coming few years. However, the pace of this growth would mainly depend on the technologies that can improve and increase productivity while keeping environmental sustainability as a priority. India is urbanizing at a rapid pace. By 2030, it is expected that 590 million inhabitants will live in urban India. This will drive demand for mid-end and affordable homes. As the construction and building industry is highly dependent on the ceramics and bricks industry, the latter is poised for rapid growth in the coming years. Apart from this, the Indian government is supporting the growth of the industry through initiatives, such as Make In India, which are providing financial and technical support to companies. Technological advancements leading to new and innovative technical ceramic products with improved performance and properties will further drive the growth of the ceramics market.
