Manufacturing industries - Sugar Industry

India's sugar industry plays a pivotal role in the country’s economic development, ranking as the second-largest agro-based industry. India's historical ties to sugarcane and sugar production have solidified its position as a key player in the global market. As production continues to rise, there is a growing demand for equipment and technological advancements to keep pace with industry changes. Furthermore, driven by evolving consumer preferences favouring healthier eating habits, there has been a notable surge in demand for organic and chemical-free sugar.

As the sugar industry advances, it relies on robust wires and cables to support the evolving equipment and technology needs. A variety of wires and cables are used in the sugar business for power distribution, instrumentation, control systems, and communication, amongst other things. These wires and cables are essential for monitoring processes, regulating valves and starting/halting motors. They are also used to measure temperature, pressure, flow rate, and level in the sugar production process. Specialised cables may be necessary to meet specific requirements of the sugar production process. For instance, Polycab offers customized solutions such as Flex Cable Connectors, C Track Cables, and Electric Cable Wires that are designed specifically for the sugar industry to be rugged and capable of handling high voltages.

In certain sections of the sugar mill, where exposure to harsh conditions is common, cables with high temperature or chemical resistance may be required, and Polycab is well equipped to meet these needs. Polycab prioritises safety, dependability, durability, and compliance with industry regulations while developing wires and cables for the sugar sector. Moreover, a primary requirement in the sugar industry is to prevent contamination and uphold hygiene standards— it is crucial to safeguard the products from getting contaminated by the settlement of microorganisms. To ensure this, Polycab offers a wide selection of Power Cables, Control Cables, Instrumentation Cables, Festoon Cables and Flexible Cables that are highly resistant to thermal, chemical and mechanical stresses, with RoHS and REACH certifications, which discourage the growth of organic contaminants.
