What drives Glass & Ceramics on the PSX
Float glass, container glass and tiles are made in furnaces that cannot economically be switched off, so this is a high-fixed-cost business where capacity utilisation decides profitability. Energy is the largest controllable input and soda ash and silica the rest. Demand is construction and packaging, and the domestic market competes directly with imported tile.
What to watch
- Gas and power tariffs — a furnace runs continuously, so an energy tariff change resets the whole cost base.
- Capacity utilisation: fixed costs are spread over output, and a cold furnace still costs money.
- Construction and real-estate activity for tiles and flat glass; beverage and pharmaceutical volumes for containers.
- Import duty and anti-dumping measures on tile, which set the ceiling on domestic pricing.
