The natural stone and stone products market in the United Kingdom

The size of its market makes the UK an attractive target country in the EU. The economic crisis will have a great impact on the natural stone market though, mainly due to the drop in construction activity and consumer spending. However, natural stone is now more widely used in and around the house. Products often used in renovations might be more in demand.
