Raw sugar is the product from which refined sugars are made. It is also consumed in some parts of the world as a foodstuff in its own right. VHP raw sugar is processed more than normal raw sugar.
The bulk of the world’s VHP sugar is produced in Brazil from high sucrose sugar cane. Production of VHP sugar requires quite a great deal of sugar cane, and it is estimated that for every hundred tons of sugar cane that is processed, only twelve tons of VHP sugar is produced.
Icumsa 600-2000 is typically the ratings in which VHP sugar falls. VHP or Very High Polarity sugar is a raw sugar with a polarity of more than 99.4 percent and contains relatively few contaminants, two reasons that make this sugar light brown in color. Polarity is a term used to describe the percentage of sucrose that is present in a mass of raw sugar. The term VHP is widely understood to mean that 99.4 percent of the total mass of a raw sugar is pure sucrose, and that 0.6 percent or less is waste material. VHP remains in high demand as it is much cheaper and easier to refine than standard raw sugars.
