Materials

Named products and services whose primary activity is a raw or semi processed industrial material sold as an input to further manufacturing, including named steel, chemical, packaging, industrial gas and construction material product lines. Belongs here: any named offering whose core function is the raw or semi processed material itself rather than a finished good made from it. Does not belong here: a finished consumer or industrial good manufactured from these materials, grouped under Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples or Industrials instead depending on its own primary activity.
