The word 'ceramic' has its origin from the Greek word 'Keramikos' meaning potter's clay. Stronger, harder, as well as less permeable to fluid objects are usually made from clay and it's an age old tradition. Clay is commonly used for making pots, tiles, and bricks. The ceramics are usually made by heating natural earth until the form changes and it becomes harder and non-porous. Ceramics are produced at high temperature which drives off water chemically bound in the earth and any water that soaked into it. True ceramics appear rarely in the nature as a result the world depends almost entirely on man made porcelain products for it various needs. However, with the changing times, the use of ceramics has also changed.
The growing demand for ceramic products has led to change in the technique of its production. Earlier, the demand for ceramics was met by simple production techniques such as through the usage of potter's wheel and kilns. But, now ceramic products are being produced in factories to meet the all time high demand. Now the industry focuses on developing such techniques that help to minimize cost and maximize output.
Al though the importance of ceramic products as basic utility objects has declined, nowadays its use in numerous industries, including automotive, power generation, refractory, industrial, food processing, chemical construction and many more has increased by leaps and bounds.

The history of Chinese ceramics dates back to more than 8,000 years when Chinese tribes used clay to make artifacts. Chinese ceramic making art reached its peak during the latter part of 15th century (The Ming Dynasty), with the discovery of a new glazing technique called the 'five color porcelain.' With this technique, artisans could use different colors on porcelain after it has been baked.
Chinese ceramic products have always played an important role in foreign exchange. Now with the rising income levels and growing inclination towards art worldwide, the demand for ceramic products has increased.
