COVID-19 has had a severe impact on every country’s GDP. The nationwide lockdowns and the shutdown of non-essential industries have caused a downfall in the global economy. The falling demand from customers worldwide has led the world into a global recession and total recovery is not expected in the near future. Many construction projects and activities, including government infrastructure projects, which were initially running, came to a complete halt due to the imposition of lockdowns.

The construction industry, like many others, is labor-intensive. Mass unemployment in the construction industry led to widespread panic, leading laborers to return to their homelands to sit out the pandemic. Even after the easing of lockdowns restrictions in several countries, construction companies will work with reduced finances, labor, and working hours, which is further going to delay project deliveries. It is estimated that initially, government projects will resume operations; however, with the constraint of budgeted revenue, it will be difficult for even government to finance the big projects for the rest of the year. The impact of the slowdown of the construction industry was felt by the ceramic tiles industry as well. Apart from the shutdown of production facilities, the cancellation of several projects in the commercial and industrial construction sector will lead to the reduced demand for ceramic tiles in 2020.
