Nordzucker looks back on a successful 2025\/2026 beet campaign with stable processing. Group-wide yields were well above average. The amount of produced sugar is higher than expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While our sites in Finland and Lithuania successfully completed processing of the 2025 beet harvest in December, the factories in Germany and Sweden followed suit in the second half of January, and by the beginning of February, the last beets from this campaign will have been processed in Slovakia, Denmark and Poland. Overall, harvesting conditions were good; beet diseases \u2013 including the spreading SBR complex \u2013 had a limited regional impact, but no exceptional effect on beet yields and quality overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cStable processing at our plants and excellent cooperation along the entire value chain are key factors in enabling us to complete the campaign safely and efficiently,\u201d emphasises Lars Gorissen, Chief Executive Officer of Nordzucker AG, adding: \u201cConsistent investment in our plants and a special focus on cooperation and process optimisation are paying off and motivate us to continue implementing our strategy consistently under challenging market conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of its company-wide GoGreen programme, Nordzucker has further improved energy performance indicators at its factories and significantly reduced CO\u2082 emissions \u2013 through efficiency gains in process steps, the use of biogas from beet pulp and increased energy recovery from steam. \u201cThe targeted investments made in energy efficiency over the last few years are now having a clear impact in practice: we are working in a more stable, efficient and resource-friendly manner. We are therefore well on the way to achieving our CO\u2082 reduction targets for 2030 while at the same time increasing our operational performance,\u201d explains Alexander Godow, COO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
