Products
Leveraging sustainable agricultural practices and modern industrial processes driven by a relentless pursuit of efficiency and excellence, we produce sugar, ethanol, and bioenergy.
Throughout the production process, we maximize the use of sugarcane. That means ensuring complete resource utilization. How? See below.
A cornerstone for achieving production success. Agricultural planning encompasses the designation of planting areas, proper demarcation with due consideration for environmental protection, and the implementation of technology to ensure 100% mechanized planting, which promotes and guarantees sustainable management practices. During the production and management phases, agricultural byproducts are utilized as inputs, such as filter cake prepared in our composting yards, and vinasse is employed for fertigation during crop management.
Our harvesting process is fully mechanized, conducted at the peak of sugarcane's physiological maturity. The entire process is controlled by onboard computers, which guarantee traceability. Guaranteeing even more safety, technology, and innovation in action!
Once harvested, the sugarcane is transported to the industrial park. It undergoes a defibering process to facilitate juice extraction, and the defibered bagasse is subjected to successive pressing stages.
The extracted sugarcane juice undergoes a series of decantation, evaporation, boiling, and centrifugation processes. This results in the production of VHP sugar.
Sugar can be turned into alcohol. Hydrated ethanol is produced via distillation, while anhydrous ethanol is obtained through dehydration.
Vinasse and Filter Cake are, respectively, byproducts and impurities generated during the production process. Filter cakes are reused as fertilizer, while vinasse is used in fertigation.
After pressing, the residual sugarcane bagasse is used in the production of bioenergy through boilers.
As one of the industry's leading players, we are committed to expanding our production capacity. Our sugarcane milling capacity reaches an impressive 10 million tons per crop season. These figures translate into jobs, products, and development.
We constantly seek innovative and sustainable alternatives, as well as new technologies.
With our Administrative Headquarters in Uberlândia, we operate three units: Vale do Tijuco, Vale do Pontal, and Canápolis.
