glazing, and firing pottery, ceramics, plumbing fixtures, and electrical
supplies made entirely or partly of clay or other ceramic materials,
refractories, non-clay refractories, ceramic tiles, bricks, and other
structural clay building materials. Refractory materials are heated and then

products find applications in construction, steel making, cosmetics, and food industry.
The global clay product and refractory manufacturing market was
valued at $331 billion in 2017. This is due to an increase in investments in
infrastructure and smart city projects, thereby boosting the demand for
limestone and cement coupled with rise in demand for refractory products used
in downstream manufacturing and energy production industries.
The clay product
and refractory manufacturing market is segmented into pottery, ceramics, and
plumbing fixture manufacturing, clay building material and refractories

companies in the country, coupled with the large population, and high demand
for building and construction followed by India and Japan.
