Tile exporter to Iraq: ceramic wall tiles from India

Iraq is rebuilding: housing projects in Baghdad and Basra, Erbil's apartment towers and malls, the hotels and pilgrim accommodation of Najaf and Karbala, and family homes across the south. It has become one of the biggest markets for Indian ceramic tiles, which suit its budgets and its taste for marble, stone and ornament.

Axoli Tiles supplies Iraqi importers and traders from Morbi through Umm Qasr, ten to fourteen days by sea, with the inspection and certificate of conformity that Iraq's pre-shipment programme requires.

Designs that suit Iraq

Marble and stone looks for living rooms, reception rooms and lobbies, which Iraqi homes favour; cladding looks for facades in matt finishes that take heat and dust; geometric patterns for hotels and pilgrim accommodation; and glossy tiles for kitchens. Every design is glazed ceramic that holds colour through 50-degree summers.

• Typical sea transit: 10 to 14 days, plus clearance on arrival
