Iran rolls out 15m tons of building stones annually

Iran is a major player in the global stone industry, boasting an impressive annual production of up to 15 million tons of building stones, according to Bahram Shakouri, the head of the Iran Stone Association.
“Notably, a staggering 90% of this output is earmarked for domestic use, underscoring the country’s self-sufficiency and demand for these essential materials,” he added, IRNA reported.
“Our strategic objective is to significantly boost Iran’s stone production capabilities, leveraging the country’s inherent strengths and untapped potential. By doing so, we aim to not only increase domestic supply, but also expand our reach into new and lucrative export markets, further solidifying Iran’s position as a major player in the global stone industry.”
As Iran’s construction sector continues to thrive, it is likely that this production capacity will remain a vital component of the country’s economic
landscape.
