Upon arrival at the plant, the cane is weighed and analyzed to determine sucrose content from sample, then sent to a downloading area at the factory and immediately undergoes a washing process.

The cane is ground for juice; it goes onto sugar production and the bagasse is used to generate bioelectricity.

The juice goes through heating, chemical treatment, decanting and sifting as to remove impurities.

More than 75% of the water is removed, forming a concentrated syrup.

Crystallization and syrup sucrose recovery are performed then transformed into a mass.

The physical separation of sugar.
At this stage sugar is washed with hot water and steam. A by-product called molasse is obtained and forwarded to ethanol production.

This stage is exclusively done at our mills, which produces refined sugar, obtained through a new dissolution, cooking and centrifugation as to meet much of the export market specifications.

The ideal humidity of sugar is reached and then it is sieved.

At our mills we have implemented an innovative stage, in which we adequate the balance between sugar temperature and air moisture, as to avoid sugar aggregation.

Sugar is ready to be put into 50kg bags or big bag.
