China Resumes Export Growth 2023
Ceramic World Review, Following a decade of steadily declining exports,the Chinese ceramic tile industry reversed this downward trend in 2023 with 6.2% year-on-year export growth, from 579 million sqm in 2022 to 615 million sqm in 2023. This enabled the country's tile industry to maintain its supremacy as the world's largest exporter, a position that had been under serious threat from India whose tile exports surged by 39.6% to 589.5 million square meters in 2023.
