INTRODUCTION TO CERAMIC INDUSTRY:

 
The word ceramic is derived from the Greek word (keramikos) which means burnt
material. The term covers non-metallic materials whose formation is due to the
action of heat. Up until the 1950s or so, the most important of these were the
traditional clays made into pottery, bricks, tiles and are like along with cements
and glass. 
Clay is only one and unique material which when moistened with a suitable
quantity of water, develops plasticity which helps in manufacturing unlimited
numbers of objects in various shapes and sizes.
 
 
CERAMIC BEFORE CHRIST:
Ceramic is one of the most ancient industries on the planet. Once humans
discovered that clay could be dug up and formed into objects by first mixing with
water and then firing, the industry was born.
Almost 10,000 years later, as settled communities were established, tiles
were manufactured in Mesopotamia and India.
For centuries ceramic as a form of craft, was passed on from generation to
the other in our country just stopping short of becoming a full-fledged industry.
 
 
HISTORY OF CERAMIC INDUSTRY IN PAKISTAN:
At the time of creation of Pakistan in 1947 there was no ceramic industry at
all. There were certain pockets where the concentration of such units formed a
cluster. The government of Pakistan provided technical and financial assistance
through the Ceramic Service Center in Gujarat and pottery development in
Shahdara near Lahore. 
The pottery industry developed into a ceramic industry and better
manufacturing techniques were introduced. In late sixties refractory
manufacturing units were established, namely General Ceramic and Marshal
Ceramic at Gujranwala and General refractory at Karachi.
