Recently, "Ceramic World Review" and MECS ranked the world's 25 largest ceramic groups based on ceramic tile production in 2020. Judging from the ranking, an annual production capacity of 42 million square meters and an annual output of more than 31.6 million square meters can be included in the list. In 2020, the top three ceramic tile manufacturers are: Mohawk in the United States, Lamosa in Mexico, and SCG Ceramics in Thailand.
It is worth mentioning that the ranking of the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world does not include Chinese ceramic companies.
According to the "2020 Ceramic Industry Long March V - China Ceramic Tile Production Capacity Survey" jointly launched by the China Building and Sanitary Ceramics Association and "Ceramic Information", the annual production capacity of the top 20 ceramic enterprises in China's ceramic tile production capacity is 66 million square meters and Based on the above, based on the average production capacity release rate of 70% of Chinese ceramic enterprises, the annual output is also 46.2 million square meters and above. It is fully capable of entering the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world jointly released by "Ceramic World Review" and MECS.
If the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world are ranked based on the data of Chinese ceramic companies, about 15 Chinese ceramic companies have the strength to be included in the list.
The top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world are announced
The annual ceramic tile output threshold is 031.6 million square meters
Recently, "Ceramic World Review" and MECS ranked the world's 25 largest ceramic groups based on ceramic tile production in 2020. Different from the past situation where the rankings remained relatively stable, due to the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020, the output of many ceramic groups and ceramic companies has experienced major changes.
A considerable number of ceramic groups have issued reports stating that production was suspended to varying degrees during the epidemic blockade in the first half of 2020, which in turn led to a decline in output. Among them, a strong recovery in the second half of 2020 offset most of the decline, but overall output still changed.
Specifically, the output of ceramic groups such as STN Group and Cersanit has experienced a smaller decline, only down 1.5% year-on-year. However, ceramic groups or companies in Mexico and Brazil have suffered a greater blow, with annual output declining by more than 10%. .
Compared with 2019, only a few companies have maintained or increased production capacity and output, including Pamesa, Arwana, Victoria, Carmelo Fior and Somany. Their production capacity has increased by about 18%, and their output has also increased by about 14%. .
Specific capacity and output
15 Chinese ceramic companies have the strength to be included in the list
It is reported that the key data for this ranking are mainly provided by the ceramic tile manufacturers themselves or obtained through public channels by publishers. It is affected by a variety of factors, including Italy's Concorde Group, Egypt's Cleopatra, Brazil's Cedara/Incopisos, and China's top ten annual production capacity groups. Enterprises (New Pearl Group, Weimei Group, Asus Ceramics Group, Hongyu Group, Dongpeng Holdings, Xinquanye Enterprise, Mona Lisa Group, Haosheng Enterprise, New Jincheng Group and Shuncheng Group) are not included in the statistics.
According to the 2020 "Ceramic Industry Long March" survey data, among the 20 largest ceramic enterprises in China in terms of ceramic tile production capacity, Quansheng Enterprise, ranked 20th, has an annual production capacity of 66 million square meters.
In 2020, the COVID-19 epidemic broke out across the world. Judging from the prevention and control measures of various countries, China is undoubtedly one of the countries that has quickly and stably controlled the epidemic, and the resumption of work and production has been relatively smooth and rapid.
If the output is calculated based on an average capacity release rate of 70%, both in terms of production capacity and output, China's top 20 ceramic enterprises in terms of ceramic tile production capacity are fully capable of entering the world's top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers jointly released by "Ceramic World Review" and MECS.
If the production capacity and output of the top 20 ceramic enterprises in China are re-ranked, approximately 15 Chinese ceramic groups/enterprises can occupy a place among the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world.
The re-ranking by annual output in 2020 is roughly as follows: Mohawk, New Pearl Group, Weimei Group, LAMOSA Group, SCG Ceramics, ASUS Ceramics Group, Hongyu Group, Dongpeng Holdings, RAK Ceramics, Xinquan Enterprises, Mona Lisa Group, CARMELO FIOR Ceramics, PAMESA Group, Haosheng Enterprise, STN Group, KAJARIA Ceramics, New Jincheng Group, Shuncheng Group, New Zhongyuan Group, ARWANA CITRAMULIA, Sun Ceramics Group, DYNASTY Ceramics, Oceano Ceramics, Pure One Enterprise, Top 100 Enterprises.
(Note: The above statistics are as of December 2020, and the annual production capacity is based on a 330-day production cycle, based on factories with kilns, excluding leasing and OEM production capacity)
Revenue
China accounts for at least 7 of the top 10 in the world
In 2020, affected by the COVID-19 epidemic, a considerable number of ceramic groups and ceramic companies faced the problem of insufficient inventory due to long-term production suspensions. Taking Mohawk as an example, due to the suspension of production in 2020, the revenue of the ceramic tile sector fell by 5.5% year-on-year. Other companies were basically the same as before, and some even saw positive growth in revenue, including Lamosa and Pamesa, which increased by 20.5% respectively. %, STN increased by 10.8%, and Somany increased by 5.3%.
In addition, sales of Cersanit, Interceramic and Saudi ceramics are higher than production.
Judging from the data of the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world released by "Ceramic World Review", the revenue of the top three groups and companies in 2020 is as follows: Mohawk ceramic tile sector revenue was 3.433 billion euros (equivalent to approximately RMB 25.577 billion) yuan), LAMOSA Group’s revenue was 602.3 million euros (approximately equivalent to RMB 4.487 billion), and SCG Ceramics’ revenue was 565 million euros (approximately equivalent to RMB 4.210 billion).
China's listed ceramic companies, such as Dongpeng, Oceano, Mona Lisa, etc., can also be ranked among the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world. According to the 2020 financial report released by it, although the ceramic industry was severely affected by the epidemic in 2020, the revenue was red across the board and all achieved growth.
Among them, Dongpeng Holdings’ total revenue in 2020 was 7.252 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 7.41%; Oceano achieved operating income of 5.022 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 0.33%; Mona Lisa’s operating income was 4.864 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase 27.86%.
From a revenue perspective, China's Weimei Group can also rank second in the world with revenue of more than 10 billion yuan; Dongpeng Holdings, Mona Lisa Group, Oceano Ceramics, Hongyu Group, New Jincheng Group, Shuncheng Group and other "5-10 billion yuan" ceramic groups can all rank among the top ten in the world.
It is worth mentioning that compared with the top 25 ceramic tile manufacturers in the world published by "Ceramic World Review", the profitability of China's listed ceramic groups and enterprises seems to be stronger when the output is equivalent.
2021 is also a year full of variables, but Mohawk Group, Lamosa Group, Rak Ceramics and other groups and companies have all achieved positive growth, with year-on-year growth of 23%, 65% and 41.8% respectively in the first half of the year. Moreover, groups and companies such as Mohawk, Lamosa, and Victoria PLC have acquired and expanded to enhance market competitiveness.
In China's building ceramics industry, in 2021 Weimei Group, DongfangChina's leading ceramic companies such as Peng Holdings, New Pearl Group, Oceano Ceramics, Mona Lisa Group, Hongyu Group, and Nobel Group have all achieved large-scale production capacity expansion and intelligent upgrading. In an increasingly concentrated industry, Against this background, with the largest consumer market in the world, Chinese ceramic companies will have an even stronger and leading position on the world stage. There may also be greater changes in the world ceramic tile manufacturing rankings in 2021.
Conclusion:
Looking at production capacity, output, and revenue data alone, among the world's top 10 and top 20 ceramic companies, China has formed an absolutely overwhelming advantage, accounting for even more than 60%. It is backed by the world's largest consumer market and the help of With the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, the production capacity and output value of a large number of China's ceramics enterprises have taken the lead in the world. In the future, it is not impossible for the world's largest ceramic tile manufacturing company to be in China.
But at the same time, we must also clearly see that compared with the world's ceramic giants, there is still a certain gap between China's ceramic enterprises in terms of scale, internationalization, global layout, product innovation, and brand operation.
