Ceramic Tiles Market Forecast, Trend Analysis & Competition Tracking: Canada Review 2017 to 2022

Tiles find wide-ranging applications in the construction sector. They are used for covering floors, roofs, walls, and table tops of buildings. The function of such tiles varies from providing protection and durability to enhance the aesthetic appeal of walls and buildings. Tiles are made using various materials such as stone, metal, ceramic, and glass. Tiles made from ceramic materials are referred to as ceramic tiles and find extensive applications in the construction business. Based on application, ceramic tiles can be classified into floor tiles, wall tiles, industrial tiles, and vitrified or porcelain tiles. Ceramic tiles are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, durable, they show consistency in color and easy to maintain. These properties make them a much preferred option for use in the construction industry, which is driving the Canada ceramic tiles market. Moreover, ceramic tiles are used to decorate homes. This can present several opportunities in the market. However, there is high volatility in the prices of raw material such as bentonite, feldspar, silica sand and kaolin. This is a main restraint likely to hinder the growth of the Canada ceramic tiles market. Other aspects such as emission of greenhouse gases and particulate matter while processing of ceramic tiles, especially during drying and machining operations, hamper the growth of the ceramic tiles market.


Ceramic is non-metallic, inorganic, and typically crystalline in nature. It is chemically composed of nitride or oxide or carbide materials. Sometimes, partially crystalline elements such as silicon, glass, and carbon are also considered as ceramics. Different ceramics are manufactured through specific processes, of which the common process is to heat and subsequently cool the material to a certain temperature. Naturally, ceramics are strong, brittle and hard in compression, but are weak in tension and shearing. These properties make ceramics resistant to harsh environments and caustic or acidic materials. Owing to these differentiating characteristics of ceramics, they find applications in a variety of products which are categorized as:

o    Structural: This includes ceramic applications in roof and floor tiles, pipes, and bricks
o    White ware: This includes ceramic applications in wall tiles, cookware, tableware, sanitary ware, pottery products, and more
o    Refractory: This includes applications in gas and fire radiant, kiln linings, glass and steel crucibles, and so on
o    Other: This includes all other applications of ceramics in various industries such as knife blades, disc brakes in vehicles, watch cases, and biomedical implants, among others

According to Fact.MR’s research report on the Canada ceramic tiles market, the market is anticipated to reach a value of about US$ 1.8 Bn by 2022 reflecting a sluggish CAGR during the forecasted period of 2017-2022.

Scanning Probe Microscopes – Preferred Choice for Atomic Level Research Activities

For complicated scientific R&D tasks, there is a necessity to manage precise tools that are capable of offering supreme assistance to the scientists and researchers. This is where Scanning Probe Microscopes covers the technique of both Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM).   Functionality of STM & AFM It is important to know that, STM microscopes follow a process where electrons tunnel through whatever barrier is available when voltage is introduced to the tip which is situated just above the surface. Hence, atomic resolution happens when the tunneling falls at a certain distance from the surface resulting in just the final few layers of the tip contributing. On the other hand, under AFM the sharper tips manage to scan across the surface and eventually measure the structure of the sample. Usefulness of Scanning Probe Microscope With the availability of Scanning Probe Microscope , you are rewarded with the option to analyz...
