ASEAN Ceramics Market Size & Trends

The ASEAN ceramics market size was valued at USD 7.68 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2024 to 2030. The expanding economy and increasing disposable incomes in ASEAN countries are leading to infrastructural development and urbanization. The significant growth in construction and infrastructure development activities, particularly in rapidly emerging economies within the region, such as Indonesia and Malaysia, is anticipated to drive product demand for ceramics, particularly in tiles, bricks, sanitary ware, and other sectors. In addition, the application of ceramics is expanding in the medical sector due to their durability and biocompatibility, further propelling the market growth.

ASEAN Ceramics Market Size, By Product, 2020 - 2030 (USD Billion)

In developing economies, ceramics are increasingly being used instead of metal for roofing due to their superior strength. Indonesia's consistent need for industrial, residential, and infrastructural development continues to drive new construction projects. Strong economic growth is projected to further increase the demand for ceramics in the construction sector over the next eight years.

Beyond construction, ceramic coatings are increasingly employed in drug delivery systems. Moreover, the adoption of ceramic materials in implant devices has surged in recent years. The exceptional properties of zirconium-based products, such as toughness, strength, and biocompatibility, are propelling their demand in applications such as femoral heads for hip replacements.

Moreover, with the rise of ceramic materials in various applications, there's a growing focus on ensuring their safety, especially when they come into contact with food. The ASEAN Guidelines on Specific Measures for Ceramic Articles Intended to Come into Contact with Foodstuffs reflect this focus. These guidelines are crafted for competent authorities and manufacturers to guarantee the safety of ceramic articles used in food-related contexts. They advocate for the implementation of a traceability system. This system is designed to help relevant business operators identify and manage the critical parameters that determine whether ceramic articles comply with the necessary safety requirements.

Product Insights

The traditional segment dominated the market and accounted for a share of 55.5% in 2023. This dominance can be attributed to the widespread use of traditional ceramics in various applications due to their versatility and cost-effectiveness. Traditional ceramics are composed of common minerals, including clay, silica, and feldspar, which are abundantly available. These ceramics have found extensive use in a variety of applications, ranging from pottery and bricks to sanitary ware and tiles. Despite the emergence of advanced ceramics, the traditional product segment continues to hold a substantial market share due to its established presence and broad range of applications.

The advanced segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2024 to 2030. The growth of the segment is influenced by the surging demand for advanced ceramics in various sectors, such as semiconductors, automotive, medical devices, aerospace, and other devices. In addition, the rapid innovations in technology are manufacturing products with thermal stability, enhanced strength, corrosion resistance, and other features thus increasing the reliability of the products and surging their demand. With issues such as environmental sustainability, increasing research & development on the products are expected, thus being a major factor in the growth of the segment in the forecasting year.

Application Insights

The tiles segment accounted for the largest market revenue share in 2023 with a share of 61.7%. The expanding construction industry and increasing government projects on large-scale infrastructure are expected to drive the segment's growth. Shifting commercial preferences towards durable flooring, especially in offices, hotels, retail spaces, and healthcare facilities, are driving the segment significantly.

Theabrasives segment is anticipated to grow at the fastest CAGR of 5.7% over the forecast period influenced by the surging demand for high-quality finishing in infrastructures, which is increasing the demand for abrasive materials due to its superior surface quality features. Increasing awareness for adopting sustainable practices is encouraging manufacturers to enhance their production process with eco-friendly materials such as abrasives which are made from recycled materials. Moreover, the increasing automotive industry is also impacting the sales of abrasives due to the vital role of abrasives applications in manufacturing brake pads and other wear-resistant products. As industries such as manufacturing, automotive, and construction continue to expand, the demand for ceramic abrasives is expected to rise.

End Use Insights

The building and construction segment dominated the market in 2023 with a revenue share of 47.5% attributed to the extensive use of ceramics in various construction applications, including flooring, wall coverings, bathroom and kitchen fixtures, and decorative elements. Ceramics' superior properties, such as durability, resistance to heat and moisture, and aesthetic appeal, make them ideal choices for these applications. The rapid urbanization and infrastructural development in the ASEAN region have further fueled the demand for ceramics in this segment.

ASEAN Ceramics Market Share, By End Use, 2023 (%)

The industrial segment is anticipated to witness a fastest CAGR of 6.5% over the forecast period. Ceramics are increasingly being used in various industrial applications due to their high-temperature stability, hardness, and resistance to wear and corrosion. These properties make ceramics ideal for use in harsh industrial environments. Industries such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, and energy are increasingly adopting ceramics for various applications, including insulation, abrasion-resistant linings, seals, and bearings. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing industrialization in the ASEAN region and the rising demand for high-performance materials in various industries.
