Mr. Wang Sieu Tin, Director of Phuoc Ceramic Company Long said that in the first six months of this year, the company achieved a 50% growth rate over the same period of 2017. The ceramic products exported by the company are mainly art pottery, garden pottery ...
Focus on the domestic marketIn Binh Duong, there are nearly 300 pottery production establishments, each year supplying 130-150 million products to the market. The current difficulty is the ceramic bases in the province produce more or less products also depend on customers. Therefore, although the ceramic industry in the province has continued to grow quite well, the golden age is still far away.
Nguyen Hong Hong, Director of Dai Hong Phat Ceramic Company, said that the ceramics industry has changed a lot compared to previous years, the number of small ceramic enterprises has declined because of the unbearable pressure of competition. In return, some enterprises specializing in exporting pottery gradually grow to affirm the name and prestige in the market. The trend of order sharing is being made by ceramic enterprises in Binh Duong, namely large enterprises receiving orders and then redistributing them to small firms for processing. This helps small ceramic enterprises continue to stabilize production and help businesses reduce the pressure on delivery time.
Vuong Sieu Tin said that some ceramic enterprises have come back to the domestic market in order to keep the domestic ceramic market (such as cups and bowls); In the export market in addition to ceramic garden products, construction ceramics are interested businesses. Potential for ceramic construction is huge, because the demand for new materials in construction is increasing.
Ceramic materials are used extensively in structural details of the building, from building blocks, flooring, wall tiles to hollow aggregates for lightweight concrete. In addition, sanitary ware products are indispensable materials in construction. Acid-resistant, heat-resistant ceramic products are widely used in the chemical industry, metallurgy and other industries. The main advantage of ceramic materials is the durability and long life, from local materials can produce different products suitable for the requirements of use, production technology is relatively simple, the price into competition. This is an opportunity for the pottery industry in the country. Investing in technology, building ceramics can become a potential export item because of the high demand for this item in the field of construction.
