ICUMSA 45 SUGAR. Know what you are buying!

The only sure method is to be first totally versed in sugar as a starting point and understanding these differences. Next, although many brokers use the term ‘rbu’ with reference to ICUMSA for Brazilian sugar, few understand its meaning. RBU, as used in this sense, means “Reference Base Units”. But to what it is referenced is the key. All major buyers such as Coca Cola etc have their own reference for this purpose. If you do not have a reference, or are not acceptable to the reference supplied by the refinery or SGS, then you would request sugar ICUMSA to be expressed in TU or ICUMSA Units. Which brings one to the methods used by the British Sugar Corporation.

The TU is heavily dependent upon “ash points”, which are defined as “Conductivity ash, % , expressed to three decimal places” (British Sugar Corp., Central Laboratory, ICUMSA Headquarters). Further used to weight the TU is “reflectance Grade Color” and “Solution Color” or “Filtered Color” as it is referred to, which have formulas for determination equally confusing as the one for “Ash Points”. Thus, as you see, this is not easily understood by the novice.

The buyer is best protected by having an understanding of the method used by the provider to obtain the proper product complying to the proper specification. Country of Origin specifications usually rule. These specifications are then detailed in the contract.

Traders should note that the term “INCUMSA” with an “N” is not a valid sugar trade term. (Also, it is interesting to see offers which include the words “Grade A”, which of course no sugar refinery or seller uses!) Read About Sugar.
