The traditional segment dominated the market for ceramics and held the largest revenue share of more than 58.0% in 2020. The segment witnessed tremendous growth over the past few years and is expected to dominate across the forecast period on account of the increasing application of traditional ceramics in the manufacturing of clay bricks, tableware, and porcelain tiles.
Traditional ceramics are primarily composed of silica (quartz), feldspar, and clay. These minerals in various combinations are used in the manufacturing of ceramic tiles and other ceramic-related finished products.
Advanced ceramics is expected to witness substantial growth over the next eight years. These materials exhibit a very high degree of resistance towards wear and tear and at high temperatures.
By Application Analysis
The sanitary ware segment dominated the market for ceramics and held the largest revenue share of more than 11.0% in 2020. Ceramics are used in producing various products under this segment such as shower plates, washbasins, bathtubs, and toilet bowls. In addition to being cost-efficient, ceramic-based products are easy to clean and maintain.
The abrasives segment is expected to progress at a CAGR of 3.9% in the market for ceramics over the forecast period. These are used in tools that are widely utilized in various operations such as grinding, cutting, dressing, polishing, sharpening, and dressing, particularly for metal, wood, glass, stone, and plastics.
Ceramics are largely utilized in the making of products such as art ware, figurines, sculptures, earthenware, stoneware, porcelain, and bone china.
By End-use Analysis
The building and construction segment dominated the market for ceramics and held the largest revenue share of over 40.0% in 2020. Growth in residential and commercial construction along with public and other infrastructural works is stimulating the segment growth.
In industrial end-use, advanced ceramics are employed in various applications in aerospace, chemical, petrochemical, and coatings. In the aerospace sector, ceramics are used in the manufacturing of space shuttle tiles, wear components, combustor liners, and fire detection equipment among others.
By Regional Analysis
Asia Pacific dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of over 40.0% in 2020. The region is known for the presence of skilled labor at low cost, which makes it the most lucrative for manufacturers to set up tile manufacturing plants.
China held the largest share in the region in 2020 and is anticipated to maintain this trend over the forecast period. Ceramics are largely being utilized in the construction industry.
In North America, the market is anticipated to observe steady growth over the coming years on account of the rising demand for ceramic tiles from the construction industry.
