Anklamer Zuckerfabrik Shatters Records with Unprecedented Sugar Beet Processing
The Anklamer Zuckerfabrik, the sole sugar factory in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, has achieved an extraordinary feat, processing an unprecedented volume of sugar beets during its recent campaign. From September 10th to February 12th, the factory handled an astounding 1.9 million tons of sugar beets, a historic milestone in the company’s history.
This remarkable achievement has resulted in the production of approximately 300,000 tons of sugar, a testament to the factory’s efficiency and expertise. The processed beets have also yielded significant quantities of thin and thick juice, as well as animal feed, further diversifying the factory’s output.
On multiple days, the factory surpassed its previous capacity, processing a staggering 15,600 tons of beets daily. This impressive feat is attributed to the consistently favorable weather conditions, which contributed to the exceptional quality of the harvested beets. The average sugar content reached a remarkable 17.7 percent, further boosting the factory’s productivity.
The Anklamer Zuckerfabrik’s record-breaking performance is a testament to the hard work and dedication of its employees, as well as the company’s unwavering commitment to innovation and sustainability. The factory plays a vital role in the regional economy, providing jobs and supporting local farmers.
The company’s parent company, the Dutch-based Cosun Beet Company (CBC), praised the factory’s achievements, highlighting its contribution to the company’s overall success. CBC’s commitment to sustainable practices is reflected in the factory’s efficient use of energy and water resources, as well as its efforts to minimize environmental impact.
Local farmers have also expressed their satisfaction with the factory’s performance, recognizing the positive impact it has on their livelihoods. The factory’s competitive pricing and reliable processing services have fostered a mutually beneficial partnership between farmers and the factory.
The Anklamer Zuckerfabrik’s record-breaking campaign is a resounding success story, demonstrating the factory’s ability to adapt to changing market conditions and deliver exceptional results. With its commitment to quality, innovation, and sustainability, the factory is poised to continue its legacy as a leading player in the sugar industry.
