SUGAR

Our sugar, made from sugar cane, is a source of energy of natural origin and plays a fundamental role in the food, pharmaceutical and beverage industries.

Brazil is, historically, one of the largest global sugar producers. We produce food that nourishes and sweetens the lives of thousands of people, consumed everywhere in the world.

Bulk raw crystal sugar

Raw sugar goes through a rigorous refining process where the crystals are covered by a thin layer of molasses to achieve the perfect brownish color. Production optimization is directly linked to the good conditions of our plantations and the majority of production is exported to large refineries around the world. The type of sugar produced by Quata S/A is VHP (Very High Polarization).

Bagged white crystal sugar

This sugar is the result of another processing stage, always in accordance with Anvisa requirements, where the results are crystals suitable for direct consumption. It is used in the production of drinks, biscuits and confectionery, globally.

It is sold in 1,200 kg big bags to industrial customers in Brazil and in bulk abroad.

Quality of our products

Our sugar meets the highest standards and quality criteria. We adopt best practices, receive recognition from different certifications and ensure socio-environmental responsibility throughout the sugar production cycle, promoting positive impacts throughout the chain.

One of the most important certifications in relation to our products is that of Bonsucro , which evaluates and proves the sustainable production of sugarcane derivatives throughout the chain of custody, guaranteeing the traceability of the raw material.

Our sugar is also certified according to the FSSC 22000 standard , which sets standards for safe food production.

Furthermore, our units are regularly visited by customers, who purchase our products through Copersucar, and by regular audits, to verify and obtain certifications. In the 2022/2023 harvests, we were approved in 100% of the processes, attesting to the high quality standard of Quata S/A operations and products.
