Our work
From application to delivery terms.
TAYLOR MADE ONLY connects industrial demand with supply from producers and suppliers. Negotiations take account of application, specification, volume and delivery.
Specification
The technical data sheet and analysis report help assess suitability for the process.
Commercial terms
Volume, origin, destination and timing complete the enquiry.
Each operation calls for
its own assessment.
Your operation
Start with what your process requires.
Beverages, food and other formulations have their own requirements for colour, particle size, dissolution and quality. Share your application or purchasing specification to guide product selection.
Define the product and the lot's destination.
For refining and processing, assess polarisation, colour, moisture and the yield expected in your process. For international trading, also include destination requirements and shipping terms.
Present your production with information that can be compared.
State the grade produced, origin, available volume, collection window and lot documentation. These details help assess how well the offer matches demand.
Product and application
Three grades.
Distinct criteria.
Selection starts with the intended use. The technical data sheet and the terms of the offer complete the assessment.
White / refined sugar · ICUMSA 45 enquiry
For processes requiring low-colour white sugar.
The commercial description must be accompanied by the technical data sheet. Also assess particle size, moisture and application requirements.
Enquire about this product line
White / crystal sugar · ICUMSA 150 enquiry
For applications compatible with the agreed colour standard.
Confirm the commercial grade and the limits of the product offered. The colour value alone does not determine suitability for the process.
Enquire about this product line
VHP sugar
Raw sugar for refining and processing.
Assess polarisation, colour, moisture and processing conditions. Its use must be compatible with the intended purpose and the agreed specification.
Enquire about this product lineICUMSA is not a certification seal or a complete quality specification. Colour must be stated with its unit and test method; other requirements are defined for each product and application. Illustrative photographs: appearance does not establish the ICUMSA classification.
Assessment criteria

Before starting
Questions about
the transaction.
Are ICUMSA 45, ICUMSA 150 and VHP interchangeable?
No. ICUMSA 45 and 150 are commercial colour references, while VHP identifies a high-polarisation raw sugar grade. Selection requires comparing the technical data sheet and application; none of these names replaces product approval.
Do you publish prices, minimum lot sizes and stock levels?
The commercial enquiry establishes these terms based on the product, volume, availability and delivery. The quotation must state price, currency, validity, responsibilities and payment terms.
How does a mill present its offer?
Use the “Market my production” option. State the grade, volume, facility of origin, availability and main characteristics. Analysis reports and documents support the qualification of the offer.
Can I enquire without a completed technical data sheet?
Yes. State the application and what you already know about the requirement. Requirements still being defined can be agreed during qualification.
