Vietnam’s exports of ceramic products decreased by 19.44 percent in February 2025 compared to January, reaching US$43.94 million, according to data from Vietnam’s General Department of Customs.

Vietnam’s ceramic products exports total US$98.44 million for 2025, reflecting a decrease driven by lower shipments to key markets like the USA and the UK.
