Shifting overseas procurement demands have led to a shift in bathroom fixture export from single-item supply to one-stop integrated bathroom solutions.

The European home renovation market continues to heat up, and export orders for water-saving bathroom products are steadily increasing.

A large number of older homes in Europe are undergoing renovations, driving up demand for imported bathroom fixtures. Local consumers prefer minimalist designs, water-saving and durable bathroom cabinets, smart toilet seats, and thermostatic shower systems.

Adjustments to export tax rebate policies are accelerating the transformation of the sanitary ware export trade, bringing development opportunities to high value-added products.

However, high-value-added, deeply processed products such as smart toilets, thermostatic showers, complete bathroom cabinet sets, and customized shower rooms still receive tax rebate support.
