Vietnam among 10 biggest construction ceramic producing countries: Deputy Minister

Vietnam is among the 10 biggest producers of construction ceramics and has the fourth largest ceramic tile output, according to Deputy Minister of Construction Nguyen Van Sinh.

The ceramic industry contributes more than three billion USD to Vietnam’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) annually. In addition to serving domestic market demand, Vietnam-made construction ceramic products have been exported to many regions and countries around the world, such as ASEAN, Northeast Asia, America, and Europe. In 2022 alone, exports of ceramic products brought home over 220 million USD.

The Deputy Minister said that over the past years, the government, ministries, and sectors have issued legal documents, plans, and strategies to promote the development of construction materials, including ceramics, during 2021-2030, with a vision of 2050.

Localities have also actively attracted investment in the industry, while manufacturers increased investment in many new projects.

In the past two decades, the construction ceramic industry in Vietnam has made strong progress in both quality and quantity, with the total capacity of ceramic tile production, including porcelain, granite, and cotto tiles, surpassing 800 million sq. m a year, and sanitary ware 26 million units a year.
