**Acrylic polymers imports surge as Greek manufacturers capitalize on growing demand for plastics in construction and automotive sectors.**
• Greek imports of acrylic polymers (HS Code 3906) jumped 8% in June compared to the same month last year.
• The increase coincides with a broader rise in global production costs, which has boosted prices by an average of 5%.
• Seasonal factors also contributed to the surge as European manufacturers typically ramp up production in the second quarter.
