The　ceramic　sector　contributes　significantly　to　the　consumption　of　resources　and　energy,　as　well　as　the　impact　to　the　natural　environment　in　China.　In　this　study,　the　environmental　impact　of　sanitary　ceramic　products　was　quantified　and　analyzed　using　life　cycle　assessment　methodology　with　a　＂cradle　to　gate＂　perspective.　The　results　showed　that　fossil　depletion　(FDP)　were　the　most　serious　environmental　impacts　which　account　for　the　total　damage　(62.02%),　followed　by　global　warming　potential　(GWP)　(28.75%)　and　particulate　matter　formation　(PMFP)　(8.12%).　In　addition,　the　energy　production　phase　was　the　stage　that　resulted　to　the　major　environment　load　due　to　natural　gas　production　and　power　generation.　The　natural　gas　and　coal　consumption,　as　well　as　CO2　emissions　represented　significant　contribution　to　the　total　impact　which　account　for　37.06,　18.92　and　28.44%,　respectively.　Moreover,　it　was　indicated　that　the　sensitivity　of　natural　gas　and　electricity　consumption　to　sanitary　ceramics　were　greater　than　other　substances.　Therefore,　reducing　the　consumption　of　natural　gas,　electricity　and　resin　are　the　effective　way　to　achieve　energy　saving　and　emission　reduction　in　sanitary　ceramic　industry.
