We are offering excellent quality Indian Sugar. India is world's highest producer and supplier of sugarcane and its related products. Sugarcane is a perennial grass in the phocaea family and is cultivated in tropical and sub-tropical regions for obtaining sucrose that is found in its stems. It requires a frost-free climate with sufficient rainfall during the growing season to make full use of the plant's great growth potential. The crop is harvested mechanically or by hand, chopped into lengths and conveyed rapidly to the processing plant. It is then milled to extract juice and sugar is further extracted by diffusion.

The resulting thin syrup is then concentrated in a series of evaporators and water is removed by way of evaporation process in vacuum containers. The resulting supersaturated solution is seeded with sugar crystals. Then the sugar crystallizes out and is separated from the fluid and dried. The crystals of raw sugar have a sticky brown coating and can either be used as they are or can be bleached by sulphur dioxide or treated in a carbonation process to produce a whiter Indian Sugar. Indian Sugar is also used to produce molasses, potable alcohol, consumable alcohol, etc.
