S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Exports by the Brazilian ceramic industry increased by 65.7% in the first half of 2021 over the same period last year, reaching USD 224.7 million. In volume, the improvement was even more significant, 69%, totaling 63.9 million square meters, according to data released this Tuesday (24) by the Brazilian Association of Manufacturers of Ceramic Tiles, Sanitary Ware and Related Products (ANFACER).<\/p>\n
There was also an expansion in sales of ceramic products in the Brazilian market, where 449.3 million square meters were sold from January to June, an increase of 22.7% over the same months in 2020. As a result, sector sales totaled 513 million square meters jointly in the foreign and domestic markets.<\/p>\n
In a release by ANFACER, the board chairman of the entity, Benjamin Ferreira Neto, indicated a positive outlook for the Brazilian ceramic tilings industry. \u201cWhen we look at the foreign market, one of the advantages of the Brazilian ceramic industry is its diversity, which allows us to meet the needs of markets with different profiles,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Brazil is the sixth largest ceramic exporter globally, selling to over 110 nations and being the third-largest producer and second-largest consumer market in the world. For 2021, ANFACER estimates exports of 124.2 million square meters, with a 32% increase over 2020.<\/p>\n
