In 2023, China led the global export of worked marble, travertine, and alabaster, contributing significantly more than other countries, followed by Italy and Spain. The United States showed the most substantial year-on-year growth among the top exporters. Brazil, Greece, Jordan, and Belarus also recorded significant growth rates. However, countries like Portugal, Belgium, Armenia, and Denmark experienced declines. While Slovenia and Mauritius saw remarkable growth rates, certain European countries faced challenges with decreasing export volumes.
Future trends to watch include the potential for increased demand in emerging markets, technological advancements in processing and quarrying, and shifts toward sustainable practices that could affect the competitive dynamics of traditional exporting countries.
