you can purge unused components but that I know you can´t do that with the unused materials, you have to erase them one by one.....

It might not save you this time if you're mid-modelling; but ahead of having an agreed CAD/BIM-protocol-compliant template file; I've recently been promoting the use of a purged (and pre-loaded) .rvt file for the starting of new projects within our office; you need only cull the materials (and any other unwanted families, components etc) once on a blank project - then use that as your starting point in future.

" This is exactly what I'm trying to set up. Although the project I'm working on is mostly to the standaards we want for our projects so I am trying to get rid of everything unwanted then I plan to transfer project standards. Materials were part of the unwanted items I'm trying to get rid of.

Then sadly it's a case of manually delete/enter/delete/enter/delete/enter - took me only a minute or so.
