Continuing the legacy of the previous editions held in Thailand, the ASEAN Ceramics & ASEAN Stone show floor will also be hosting the International Conference for Traditional and Advanced Ceramics, ICTA2025. The premier conference is organised by the Thai Ceramic Society (TCS), National Metal and Materials Technology Center (MTEC), and Department of Materials Science of Chulalongkorn University. The conference invites over 15 local universities and regional experts in materials science research. Discussions encompassed areas such as Advanced Ceramics, Building and Construction Materials, and Ceramics for Energy and Environmental Applications amongst others. “ASEAN Ceramics and Stones 2025 serve as a vital platform for sharing innovations, exploring emerging trends, and fostering collaboration across the global ceramic industry.”, Dr. Sirithan Jiemsirilers, President of the Thai Ceramic Society (TCS), has stated. “Beyond showcasing technology, this exhibition also strengthens professional relationships and encourages the adaptation and transformation of the ceramic sector to remain competitive in a changing global landscape.”.

Southeast Asia continues to boast a diverse production market in the manufacturing of sanitaryware, raw materials, insulators, tableware, supplies, refractory, heavy clay and advanced ceramics. The next ASEAN Ceramics & ASEAN Stone – the 10th and 3rdedition of Southeast Asia’s leading international exhibition of Machinery, Technology and Materials for manufacturing of ceramics and natural stone, will take place in Hanoi, Vietnam.
