Kaolin exports from Asia, especially from countries like China and Malaysia, are experiencing substantial growth, driven by rising demand from Southeast Asia. Industries in Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia are incorporating kaolin into ceramics, paper, and rubber production as these countries undergo rapid industrialization. Chinese companies are playing a vital role, not only as exporters but also as technical partners, sharing expertise and technology with local producers. This cooperation is creating a competitive edge for the region, as Southeast Asia increasingly relies on quality kaolin from Chinese and regional suppliers. As the Southeast Asian economies grow, kaolin trade between China and its neighbors is expected to expand, with exports potentially reaching new highs in the coming years.
