Planetary Commodities are the resources and products of Planetary Industry. There are several tiers available with the end-products becoming larger and more complicated each tier.

Potential todo: Sort tables by the combination result?


Tier 1 - Basic Commodities (P1)

Planetary Resources (P0) can be processed into Basic Commodities (P1) in Basic Industry Facilities. See the Planet page for more information on Resources. Planets listed are where the Resource can be found and thus which planets can create the appropriate P1 component without importing anything.

3000 x 0.01 m³ 20 x 0.38 m³

One processed batch turns 30 m³ of a P0 material into 7.6 m³ of a P1 material, resulting in a reduction to 25% of original volume


Tier 2 - Processed Materials (P2)

Basic Commodities (P1) can be turned into Processed Materials (P2) in Advanced Industry Facilities. It takes two different P1 items to create one P2 item.

40 x 0.38 m³ 40 x 0.38 m³ 5 x 1.5 m³

One processed batch turns a combined 30.4 m³ of two P1 materials into 7.5 m³ of a P2 material, again resulting in reduction to approximately 25% of original volume


Tier 3 - Refined Commodities (P3)

It takes two or three different Processed Materials (P2) to create Refined Commodities (P3) in Advanced Industry Facilities

10 x 1.5 m³ 10 x 1.5 m³ 10 x 1.5 m³ 3 x 6 m³

One processed batch turns a combined 30 or 45 m³ of two or three P2 materials into 18 m³ of a P3 material, with volume reduction now only to 40% or 60%

Tier 4 - Advanced Commodities (P4)

Advanced Commodities (P4) are created in High Tech Production Plants and take either three Refined Commodities (P3) each or two P3s and one P1.

6 x 6 m³ 6 x 6 m³ 6 x 6 m³ or 40 x 0.38 m³ 1 x 100 m³

One processed batch turns a combined 108 or 87.2 m³ of three P3 materials or two P3s + one P1 into one 100 m³ P4 item, making volume reduction insignificant at this point, or in the odd case when a P1 material is involved, actually increases the volume beyond the components! Yes, somebody appears to have allowed that guy talking about Perpetual Motion Devices to touch the P4 production chain.
