Some materials can be crafted instead of harvested. In addition, some materials can only be crafted, and cannot be found on the map. Most materials (other than Food) can be crafted in certain [[Technologies#Resources|Resource technologies]], and Food can be produced using [[Technologies#Food|Food technologies]].

'''Blastpowder''' is produced almost exclusively for use in weaponry, but has a few other advanced uses as well. If Blastpowder catches fire, it causes the flames to run out of control (even on terrain that doesn't typically burn, such as mud). Most technologies that consume Blastpowder run continuously, without intervention from the player or a Brave.
One variation form, Blastpellets, are produced by certain [[Beasts]].

{{BlockQuote|One of the most sturdy building materials, bricks offer many kinds of benefits when replacing a building material, although they have to be laboriously produced or harvested from ancient ruins.|Kainga Encyclopedia}}
'''Bricks''' can be used to replace most building materials and very often provide fireproofing or significant improvements to structure strength or health, but can be difficult to produce in sufficient quantities. Ruins offer a quick way to harvest Bricks, but don't provide very many Bricks relative to the time needed to harvest.
'''Adobe Bricks''' are essentially identical to Bricks, but are colored red.

{{BlockQuote|Crafted jars, jugs, and other containers, the foundation of a civilization. Many assume they won't need ceramics then find themselves wishing they had them.|Kainga Encyclopedia}}
'''Ceramics''' are extremely useful materials. They can be used as a building material (particularly when paired with the Ceramic Roofs passive technology), traded, or even used to put out fires. When Ceramics are crafted, they spawn filled with water and can act as a source of water to control fires.{{clr}}

'''Clay''' can be found anywhere water or [[Beasts#Snail|Snails]] are present on the map. In certain biomes, it is also sourced from anthills. Buildings made with Clay are generally more resistant to fire and wind, but crumble in the rain and snow.{{clr}}

'''Coconuts''' fall when certain trees are chopped down, and roll freely when bumped into. A few technologies utilize Coconuts, but they are otherwise just a feature of the biome. When left unmoved for a period of time, a Coconut will "degrade" into the ground and a tree will sprout in its place.{{clr}}

One '''Dye Pot''' spawns during every Challenge somewhere in the Biome.

'''Reeds''', despite their appearance, are a building material and cannot be used as food. As buildings with Reed roofs are very sensitive to fire, it is advisable to build these buildings spaced out (or think of the [[Technologies#Chimneys|Chimneys]] protection technology). However, these buildings tend to be very quick and cheap to build, and can be useful in the early game to start a Thinker's village.{{clr}}
