Sugar and Alcohol
Vallair is the exclusive distributor of OMEL's product lines for the oil and gas, energy, and sanitation sectors.
The sugar and alcohol market is one of the most important and dynamic in Brazilian agribusiness. Brazil is the world’s largest producer and exporter of sugar and the second-largest producer and consumer of ethanol, behind only the United States.
Brazil accounts for almost half of the world’s sugar exports, making it the absolute leader in this market. These two products are obtained from sugarcane, which occupies around 10 million hectares in the country, mainly in the Center-South and Northeast regions.
The sugar-energy sector faces several challenges that depend on internal and external factors, such as climate, demand, price variations, and sustainability.
OMEL has proven experience and is the ideal partner for companies in the segment, providing a complete line of equipment and systems that meet the different applications involved in the production, storage, and distribution stages with excellent performance.
