China: Big Exporter of Ceramic Products for Daily Use
Adjust font size:

China produced 15 billion pieces of ceramic products for daily use each year, accounting for 60 percent of the world's total, said an official with the China Ceramic Industry Association on Sunday.

 

The official said China is a big ceramics producer and exporter, however, the industry has been plagued by many problems over the past years, such as low sale prices, low added-value and weak competitiveness in the global market.

 

Besides, there are few well-known domestic and international brand name products, he said.

 

Last year, China produced 95 million tons of ceramic products and the export volume amounted to about US$4 billion, both ranking first in the world. Jingdezhen in east China's Jiangxi Province, the most famous Chinese porcelain-making center, has a history of over 1,600 years in making artistically exquisite ceramic pieces with sophisticated technologies.
