The milling of sugar cane produces raw sugar and also by-products such as bagasse and molasses.
Wilmar owns eight mills in Australia, seven in India, seven in Morocco, two in China and two in Myanmar. As a result of economies of scale, the prime location of our mills and their surrounding cane suppliers, we are able to operate our sugar milling operations in a cost effective manner.
Our mills generate their own electricity by burning bagasse – the fibrous material left over from crushed sugar cane or sugar beet. Excess electricity is either used internally or sold to the national power grid.
Molasses, another by-product of sugar milling, is used as an additive for livestock feed and to produce ethanol in Australia, India and Myanmar.
