In Germany, the ceramic tile market has grown similarly. Imports of tiles in 2020 climbed by 9.8%, totaling 113.6 million square meters. According to statistics, average import prices range from 4.00 to 13.85 euros per square meter. Frequently, a larger volume was purchased at a lower price. Italy's imports remain stable at roughly 60.2 million square meters, followed by Turkey (14.7 million square meters), Spain (11.2 million square meters), Poland (11.2 million square meters), and the Czech Republic (7.5 million square meters). The increased imports can be explained by the fact that after their home market collapsed, manufacturers in other countries shifted to the stable German market. At the same time, this shift means that German manufacturers, who export around a third of their products, have lost a significant export market in some situations.
