  • "The UK is the third largest construction market in Europe (after Germany and France), but it accounts for only 13% of European construction output," [Adrian Malleson] said. "A pick-up in the UK doesn't always mean increased demand for construction products across Europe." "The target is to build a processing plant in Kosovo which the company is doing, as marble is currently sent to Italy for processing where it's cut and polished," Chris Gilbert, Fox's CEO, told IM. "The marble that we produce competes with other premium marble from Italy and Spain." "Not all marble is created equally," he added. "There is marble that has unique properties, and there is only one quarry currently producing white sivec for Chinese customers."
