One of the recent trends gaining significant traction in the market is the increasing deployment of new technologies in manufacturing vitrified tiles. Most manufacturers are coming up with new technologies both in terms of the production process and new product features to stay ahead of the competition, owing to high demand and fierce competition. The vitrified tiles manufacturers are incorporating new and advanced technologies such as 3D printing, digital printing, anti-microbial glazes, nanotechnology, and water jet technology into their production processes. Digital printing technology helps in enhancing the colors of tiles, whereas anti-microbial technology is applied to tiles to reduce the bacterial growth on the surface of tiles. With the advent of smart homes various new innovative thermal tile solutions such as warmth generating, energy saving, and cooling tiles are being adopted, especially in the residential sector, which will contribute to this market’s growth during the predicted period.

Competitive landscape and key vendors

The global vitrified tiles market is highly fragmented owing to the presence of several well-established and unorganized vendors. Vitrified tile manufacturers are investing heavily in new product development to produce exclusive designs based on consumer tastes and preferences, leading to intense competition among vendors. Also, the vendors are deploying new techniques like replacing oil-based fuels with LPG or natural gas to reduce the carbon footprint during the manufacturing process. Therefore, established manufacturers are setting new benchmarks for small vendors in terms of efficiency, quality, and design.
