The global ceramic tiles market is significantly represented by floor tiles, with a market share of about 49.3% in 2024, mainly due to the high levels of construction activity in the residential and commercial sectors. Although floor tiles dominate in both the Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions, the spatial structural environment in those regions is driving a rise in the use of floor tiles, given the increased use of interiors for smart homes, as well as varied approaches to displaying spatial meaning in our built environments. We found that many clients preferred using floor tiles given their superior durability, slip resistance and aesthetic adaptability in high-footfall places like kitchens, bathrooms, hallways and malls. Furthermore, improvements in digitally printed floor tiles as well as the higher demand for larger format tiles have improved tile use in people's interiors.
At the same time rising disposable incomes of consumers, greater aesthetic awareness among homeowners and a surge in interior renovations led them to adopt tiles for walls also. Thus, this trend will reflect positive growth in the coming years. Our research highlights its CAGR for the forecasted period will be high. Homeowners are increasingly favoring stylish, easy-care wall tiles in their bathrooms, kitchens, and living rooms. As consumers are looking for increased innovation in textures, designs, and environmentally responsible glazes, the trend for accent walls, designer backsplashes, and general wall coverings is on the rise, particularly in urban apartments. The hospitality and healthcare sectors also find themselves utilizing anti-bacterial ceramic wall tiles to help them satisfy hygienic measures.
SkyQuest's market study found that over 60.1% of ceramic tiles market revenue was generated from the residential sector in 2024. This growth is significantly supported by the trend toward urban housing developments, the increase in disposable income seen in emerging economies, and the evident move toward home improvements and aesthetics. Demand is also influenced by the governments in India, China, and Latin America offering low-cost housing initiatives that have led to the mass adoption of cheaper, durable ceramic tiles which are favored for low maintenance, hygiene, and available designs for kitchen and bathrooms, as well as flooring in buildings.
Conversely, ceramic tiles are also gaining traction in non-residential representing faster growth in the coming years. The growth is due to the rapid expansion of global infrastructure developments, such as commercial real estate, hospitality, and institutional projects. It is perceived that there is increased use of large format and digitally printed surfaces within shopping centers, airports, hospitals, and office buildings for functional utility and aesthetics. Additionally, increased environmental sustainability regulations are helping push commercial developers toward the use of sustainable materials, such as ceramic tile (which also has conductive thermal insulation and longevity, which is increasingly valued in new energy-efficient building designs).
