Anotace: The study described in this article presents the first physical supply and use tables (PSUT) ever based on

the recently published methodological standard for System of Environmental-Economic Accounting
(SEEA). The tables were compiled for the Czech Republic for 2014 and can be used for increasing
analytical potential of the economy wide material flow analysis and indicators. The subsequent
compilation procedure was described in detail so that it can serve as a source of inspiration and
a benchmark for other researchers and/or statisticians. The major shortcoming of the PSUT is that not
all needed data was readily available in physical units and required estimations based on proxies. Some
parts of the tables are therefore burdened with a degree of uncertainty.
