Greece’s Calcium Phosphate Imports Rise Amid Construction Boom
**Greek Market Sees Increase in Calcium Phosphate Supplies**
• Greek imports of natural calcium phosphates (HS Code 2510) rose by 4.5% year-over-year in June, reaching 12,100 tonnes.
• The increase is attributed to a surge in construction activity across the country, driven by government infrastructure projects and private sector investments.
• Prices for natural calcium phosphates remained relatively stable during the period, averaging €280 per tonne.
Greece’s imports of natural calcium phosphates continued their upward trend in June, as the country’s construction sector experienced a rebound. The increase is largely attributed to government-funded infrastructure projects and private investments. As a result, demand for building materials, including natural calcium phosphates, has risen. With prices holding steady, Greek manufacturers are well-positioned to meet this increased demand.
