Tech/Engineering - Forestry / Wood / Timber
Portuguese term or phrase: beneficiados
(Folder de uma madeireira)
'Os principais produtos obtidos pela empresa no seu processo industrial são ... beneficiados'

The closest I found was "Value added sawn products" at www.ie.ufrj.br/cadeiasprodutivas/pdfs/foreign_direct_invest...

Can anyone confirm this or suggest something better?

You seem to be on the right track. See:

Another category is "milled wood products", but can't tell from your context if more than milling is involved in the processing.

I used this translation frequently in a project I did some years ago about making products out of wood in colonial times.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks for the reply Muriel but the text requires a noun as it is part of a list of products - sorry if that wasn´t clear
