About sugar manufacturing services

cpc code 88164 covers the industry of sugar manufacturing services. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader food and beverage sector, providing a vital ingredient for a wide range of consumer products. Sugar is a fundamental component in many food and drink items, from baked goods and confectionery to soft drinks and preserves. The sugar manufacturing industry is therefore an integral part of the global supply chain, meeting the demands of both domestic and international markets.

Production process

The primary production technique in the sugar manufacturing industry is the extraction and refining of sucrose from sugarcane or sugar beets. This process typically involves harvesting the raw materials, washing and shredding them, and then extracting the sugar juice through a process of diffusion or milling. The juice is then clarified, evaporated, and crystallized to produce raw sugar. Further refining steps, such as centrifugation and decolorization, are then used to produce the pure, white sugar that is commonly found on supermarket shelves.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the sugar manufacturing industry include sugarcane or sugar beets, which serve as the primary raw materials. Additionally, the industry relies on various processing equipment, such as mills, evaporators, and centrifuges, as well as energy sources, such as steam and electricity, to power the production facilities. 22111 Sugarcane farming and 11115 Sugar beet farming are the key supplier industries that provide the raw materials for sugar manufacturing.

Production outputs

The primary output of the sugar manufacturing industry is refined, white sugar, which is then distributed to a wide range of 31171 Snack food manufacturing, 31122 Breakfast cereal manufacturing, 31193 Flavoring syrup and concentrate manufacturing, and 31211 Soft drink and ice manufacturing industries, among others. The industry may also produce other sugar-based products, such as molasses and specialty sugars, which have their own distinct applications and markets.
