Ceramic tiles from India
Indian Ceramic Industry is a matured efficient Industry. Besides catering to the huge domestic industry, Ceramic tiles and fittings are exported in Huge quantity around the Globe

many would argue that China is competitive than India. It is not always true.For example, Indian Glazed wall tiles are more competitive than China. Even Chinese companies are importing Indian wall tiles ( anybody seeking a proof, please mail me )

Now I have started this blog to Promote Indian ceramic tiles in general and to push our brand of ceramic tiles in specific.

we can clasify the Indian Tiles broadly as below

1. Ceramic Wall Tiles
a) Glazed wall Tiles -Plain and printed
b) Digitally Printed Wall Tile

2. Ceramic Floor tiles

3. Vitrified Tiles

a) Simple vetrified Tiles

b). Double charged Vetrified Tiles

c). Digitally printed Vitrified Tiles

India is very competitive on wall tiles and some what competitive on Floor tiles in Global market. Going forward, within next few months , in floor tiles too, India will be competitive than China, because of depreciating Indian currency.

I will Post designs of all the variety in the coming postings
