unmanufactured

In natural state

Unmanufactured describes raw materials or goods that have not been processed, assembled, or transformed through industrial production.

It applies to commodities in their natural or original state, such as unmanufactured tobacco (loose leaf rather than cigarettes) or unmanufactured wood (timber rather than furniture).

The term appears most often in trade regulations, tariffs, and commercial contexts where the distinction between raw and processed goods matters for classification or pricing.
