According to the latest data from the Confindustria Marmomacchine Study Center, Italian exports of stone materials and stone processing technologies to China saw significant growth in 2024. Total exports surpassed 258 million euros, marking an impressive 24% increase compared to 2023.

A closer analysis of stone material trends reveals that raw materials dominated exports, with 229.1 million euros shipped, reflecting a 27.2% growth. However, finished and semi-finished products faced a decline of 14.7%, dropping to 18.5 million euros.
