BUILDING MATERIALS

To this day, Greek marble continues to grace public monuments and places of worship around the globe. The country’s quality marbles, like the famous Pentelicon marble used in the construction of the Parthenon, are considered a world standard. So too the country’s other exceptional stone products and ceramics that have been produced for centuries and reflect Greece’s extraordinary geology.

Combined with exceptional engineering and architectural talent, the Greek building and construction sector is one of the country’s key exporters with activities in more than 30 countries around the world: from the booming metropolises of the Middle East to new markets in Africa and South Asia. Greek manufacturers are on the leading edge of new building technologies, with the latest in solar or lighting installations, water and environmental technologies, next generation aluminum products, or other construction materials and products.
