Raw materials & semi-finished goods

Here the specification counts — we source exactly to it.

For Raw materials & semi-finished goods our standard applies without exception: we vet the source, manage transport and papers, and deliver when agreed.

Intermediate products, semi-finished goods and industrial supplies aren't bought from a catalogue: specification, consistency and delivery reliability count. We source to your data sheet — and secure quality at the source.

From sampling to ongoing supply: we build supply relationships that sustain production.

Definition

What counts as Raw materials & semi-finished goods?

Semi-finished products are intermediate goods that have already passed through part of the value chain but only become an end product at the customer: plastic semi-finished stock (sheets, profiles, granulate), metal goods and cut parts, construction by-products, technical materials. Raw materials are the unprocessed stage before that. Neither is bought from a catalogue — they are bought to a data sheet and specification.
