The European market for worked monumental and building stone, particularly in marble, travertine, and alabaster, is dominated by Italy, which accounts for the largest production value, showcasing a projected growth of 8.86% in 2023. Spain and Greece exhibit declines, while France shows moderate growth. Among smaller producers, impressive growth rates are spotlighted in Ireland and Romania, whereas Portugal has experienced a significant contraction.
