What Is ICUMSA 45 Sugar? Understanding the Global Quality Standard
ICUMSA 45 sugar (International Commission for Uniform Methods of Sugar Analysis) represents the highest grade of refined white cane sugar available for human consumption. The “45” designation indicates the maximum allowable color rating—45 ICUMSA units—measured using standardized spectrophotometric methods that quantify solution absorbance.
The Science Behind ICUMSA Ratings
The ICUMSA scale operates inversely to purity: lower numbers indicate higher quality. Refined white sugar ICUMSA 45 sits at the premium end of the spectrum, while ICUMSA 150 represents light white sugar, ICUMSA 600-1200 covers brown/raw varieties, and VHP (Very High Polarity) raw sugar exceeds ICUMSA 2000.
ICUMSA 45: Sparkling white, 99.80%+ polarity (pharmaceutical/food grade)
ICUMSA 100-150: Light white, suitable for general food processing
ICUMSA 600-1200: Brown sugar, retail consumer markets
VHP/Raw: Unrefined, requires further processing
According to ICUMSA international standards, the 45 rating ensures consistent solubility, minimal ash content, and exceptional purity—critical factors for beverage manufacturers, confectioners, and pharmaceutical applications where ingredient consistency directly impacts product quality.
Is White Sugar Refined? The Production Process Explained
Yes—refined white sugar ICUMSA 45 undergoes extensive processing from raw cane to crystalline final product. The journey involves:
Crushing & Extraction: Sugarcane juice extraction at sugar mills
Clarification: Lime treatment and filtration to remove impurities
Evaporation: Concentration into syrup through vacuum boiling
Crystallization: Seed crystal introduction for granule formation
Centrifugation: Separation of crystals from molasses
Refining: Affination, carbonatation, and final crystallization
Drying & Packaging: Moisture reduction to ≤0.04%
This multi-stage refinement explains why ICUMSA 45 sugar price per ton commands premium pricing over raw alternatives—the energy, labor, and processing infrastructure requirements significantly impact production costs.
ICUMSA 45 Sugar Specifications: Technical Standards & Quality Metrics

ICUMSA 45 Sugar HS Code: Import/Export Classification
The ICUMSA 45 sugar HS code (Harmonized System) classification determines tariff rates, customs documentation, and regulatory compliance:
HS Code 1701: Cane or beet sugar and chemically pure sucrose in solid form
HS Code 1701.91: Cane sugar, raw (without added flavoring or coloring)
HS Code 1701.99: Other cane sugar (includes refined white sugar)
NCM 1701.99.10: Brazil-specific Mercosur Common Nomenclature for refined sugar
According to World Customs Organization HS classification standards, proper HS code declaration ensures smooth customs clearance and accurate duty calculation. Brazilian sugar exports typically utilize HS Code 1701.99.10 for refined ICUMSA 45 shipments.
Brazil Refined ICUMSA 45 Sugar Price: Market Analysis & Pricing Dynamics
The Brazil refined ICUMSA 45 sugar price fluctuates based on multiple interconnected factors—from currency exchange rates and ethanol production shifts to global commodity demand and weather patterns affecting Brazilian sugarcane harvests.
