ICUMSA 150 Sugar

Wholesale ICUMSA 150 white crystal sugar from Brazil — refined white crystal cane sugar graded at ICUMSA 150 colour with a minimum polarisation of 99.5°Z, supplied by France AJ Group LTD (UK) to importers, wholesalers, distributors, retail chains, supermarkets, food service companies and industrial manufacturers worldwide. ICUMSA 150 is the cost-effective refined grade for buyers who need a clean, consistent white sugar at commercial volume without paying for the ultra-white colour specification of ICUMSA 45. Standard contract volume runs from 12,500 MT and above, supplied in 25 kg and 50 kg export bags or packaging arranged to client request. Every shipment is backed by a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA).

Product Overview & Key Specifications

ICUMSA Colour is a laboratory measurement of sugar colour expressed in ICUMSA Units (IU) — a lower value generally indicates a lighter-coloured sugar. At 150 IU maximum, ICUMSA 150 is a fully refined white cane sugar positioned for commercial and industrial production where a clean, consistent sweetener is required at volume rather than the highest achievable whiteness. The reference values below are indicative; the contracted specification is the one confirmed on the COA issued for each shipment.

Reference values only. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis accompanies every shipment and governs the contracted specification.

ICUMSA 150 vs ICUMSA 45: Which Grade Do You Need?

Both are fully refined white cane sugar from the same Brazilian supply chain — the difference is colour specification, and that difference has a direct price impact. Choosing the right one for your product avoids paying for a whiteness grade your process doesn't need.

If your finished product is coloured, opaque, or baked — a soft drink concentrate, a confection with cocoa or fruit colouring, a dry mix, an industrial feedstock — ICUMSA 150 typically delivers the same functional sweetness at a lower landed cost. If your finished product is clear or pure white and colour is visible to the end consumer, our ICUMSA 45 sugar page is the better fit. Confirm your finished-product colour requirement at enquiry stage and we'll recommend the grade that matches it.

Quality: SGS Inspection & COA

Every shipment is inspected by SGS or an equivalent independent inspection body at the load port — typically Santos or Paranaguá — with the contracted specification confirmed on a Certificate of Analysis (COA) issued in your name rather than a generic mill sheet. This is what separates a verifiable bulk sugar supply from a broker's unverified offer. Our exporting entity is UK-registered (Company No. 16875875), independently verifiable at Companies House.

Applications

Packaging & Container Loading

• 50 kg PP bags — for mechanised handling and the lower cost per tonne.

• 25 kg PP bags — for markets with manual discharge and no forklift access.

• Custom packaging arranged to client request for buyers with specific handling, labelling or private-label requirements.

• Buyers served: importers, wholesalers, distributors, retail chains, supermarkets, food service companies, restaurants, hotels, manufacturers and commercial buyers.

Pricing, MOQ & Incoterms

ICUMSA 150 is priced per metric tonne and moves with the world sugar market, volume and Incoterm, so we quote live rather than publish a fixed figure. FOB (Free On Board, typically loading from Santos) places the cargo on the vessel at the load port and the buyer arranges freight; CIF (Cost, Insurance and Freight) includes freight and insurance to your discharge port — including West Africa and other major destination regions — so the per-tonne figure is higher but the logistics are handled. A firm quotation, rather than an indicative one, requires three details: destination port, monthly or total quantity, and contract duration. Standard contract minimum is 12,500 MT and above.

Trade Terms

Payment Terms

Payment may be arranged by LC, DLC, or SBLC, subject to contractual agreement, transaction volume, and acceptance by the seller's bank. The final payment instrument, issuing bank, required wording, and document presentation conditions must be agreed before the Sales and Purchase Agreement is signed.

Origin & Market Demand

This product is sourced from Brazil, one of the world's largest exporters of refined sugar. Brazilian ICUMSA 150 is produced to a consistent 150 IU colour, giving importers and manufacturers a dependable, cost-effective supply of refined white cane sugar for high-volume production. Origin is stated on the documentation issued with every shipment. Demand for bulk white crystal sugar at this grade remains strong among food manufacturers, beverage producers and industrial buyers across West Africa and other high-volume import markets, where landed cost per tonne is the deciding factor over the marginal colour improvement offered by ultra-white grades.

Certifications

Halal certification is available on request for Muslim-majority markets. Confirm your required certification scheme at enquiry stage so the correct documentation is arranged before the purchase contract is issued.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is ICUMSA 150 sugar? It is a refined white crystal cane sugar graded at 150 IU maximum on the ICUMSA colour scale, used in beverages, confectionery, bakery, food manufacturing and industrial processing wherever a consistent refined white sugar is needed at commercial volume.

• What is the difference between ICUMSA 150 and ICUMSA 45? Both are fully refined white cane sugar. ICUMSA 45 is the higher-purity, ultra-white grade specified where colour carries through into a clear or pure white finished product. ICUMSA 150 is a lower-cost refined grade suited to general food manufacturing, industrial use and applications where the marginal whiteness of ICUMSA 45 is not required.

• Why is ICUMSA 150 more cost-effective than ICUMSA 45? The colour specification for ICUMSA 45 requires additional refining steps that ICUMSA 150 does not, which is reflected in the price per tonne. Buyers whose finished product doesn't depend on ultra-white colour typically source ICUMSA 150 for the same functional sweetness at a lower landed cost.

• What is the polarisation of ICUMSA 150 sugar? Minimum 99.5°Z, confirmed on the Certificate of Analysis issued for each shipment.

• What is the minimum order quantity? The contract minimum for this product is 12,500 MT and above, supplied in 25 kg or 50 kg export bags.

• What packaging is available? 25 kg and 50 kg bags as standard, with custom packaging available on client request. Choose 25 kg for markets with manual discharge and 50 kg to lower cost per tonne where mechanised handling exists.

• What is the difference between FOB and CIF pricing? FOB places the cargo on the vessel at the load port and the buyer arranges freight and insurance. CIF includes freight and insurance to your discharge port, so the per-tonne figure is higher but the logistics are handled.

• Is Halal-certified ICUMSA 150 sugar available? Yes, Halal certification is available on request — confirm this at enquiry stage.

• How do I verify you are a genuine supplier? Request the Certificate of Analysis, check the stated specification against your own intake requirements, and verify our UK company registration (No. 16875875) at Companies House.
