semi-finished products

The large Langensheidt gives "blanks" and "rough forgings". However in my experience of the metal-working industries, Rihling can be any semi-finished product.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "The actual product is bathroom fittings. Semi-finished product seems to be a fitting suggestion. Thank you. Frank"

raw material

from the little context and not sure what the end product is going to be, I would suggest this term which could fit a lot of things...
raw material i.e. for paper making etc.
