Recently, Mr. Flavio Marabelli, President of the Italian Chamber of Machinery and Stone, made some comments on the Italian stone machinery industry in the first half of 2008 and the first half of 2009.
First of all, he admits that it is a difficult period for the Italian stone machinery industry, but compared with other Italian industries, the stone industry is not as bad as it is supposed to be.
Italy's stone production and mechanical technology have great influence in the world, and the Machinery and Stone Chamber of Commerce has the support of 330 Italian companies. According to Mr. Marabelli, Italian machinery exports in 2008 were 826 million euros, a slight decrease from the 851 million euros in 2007. In addition, he pointed out that India has surpassed the United States to become the first buyer of Italian manufacturing. Stone processing tools and machinery technology also became India in the most important exporting country in 2009. Of course, Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and China are also the main targets.
The export figures of Italian marble and granite also showed a downward trend. In 2008, the export of 2.7 million tons of processed stone, the export value of 1.48 billion euros, compared with 2.9 million tons in 2007, the export value of 1.58 billion euros fell -6.9% and -5.3%. In addition, the corresponding number of stone imports in Italy is also decreasing, which indicates that the domestic demand is sluggish.
