EN The ceramics industry plays a key role in the economy, supplying materials essential for construction, electronics, metallurgy, and many other industries. In 2024, the production of ceramic products in Poland reached 118 million tons, including nearly 3 billion bricks and hollow blocks. The basic raw material for the production of building ceramics is clay rocks containing minerals such as kaolinite, illite, and montmorillonite. These deposits are found throughout the country, especially in the Świętokrzyskie, Częstochowa, and Tarnobrzeg regions. At the end of 2024, the balance of clay raw material resources was 2,014.6 million m3, and extraction increased by 20 % compared to the previous year. The ceramic production process includes raw material preparation, forming, drying, firing, and quality control. Modern technologies focus on automation, heat recovery, and the use of secondary raw materials. Building ceramics are characterized by high strength, weather resistance, fire resistance, and aesthetics. They are used in the production of bricks, roof tiles, tiles, clinker, and structural elements in traditional and energy-efficient construction. Production based on local raw materials reduces CO2 emissions and supports the regional economy. Thanks to its durability and environmental friendliness, building ceramics remain the material of the future, combining tradition with modern trends in sustainable development.
