Granulated Beet Raw Sugar

Granulated beet raw sugar is derived from sugar beets and processed into solid granules with a polarimeter reading less than 99.5 degrees sucrose, classifying it as raw sugar under HTS 1701.12.50.00. It lacks added flavoring or coloring and is used primarily for further refining in food production. This form meets the 'other' category for beet sugar not fitting specific subquotas.

Beet Sugar Crystals Coarse Grade

Coarse beet sugar crystals are raw sugar from beets with irregular, large crystals and sucrose content below 99.5° polarimeter reading, fitting HTS 1701.12.50.00 as 'other' beet raw sugar. No flavoring or coloring is added, intended for industrial refining. The coarse texture distinguishes it from finer granulated types under quota specifications.

Industrial Beet Raw Sugar Pellets

Beet raw sugar formed into uniform pellets for industrial handling, with sucrose <99.5° and no additives, classified under HTS 1701.12.50.00 as other solid raw beet sugar. The pelleted form aids bulk transport but maintains raw status for refining. It complies with chapter notes excluding flavored/colored products.

High-Purity Beet Raw Sugar Powder

Powdered form of raw beet sugar milled to fine consistency but retaining <99.5° sucrose polarity, classified as other raw beet sugar in HTS 1701.12.50.00. No refining beyond crystallization; powder form suits specific industrial blending. Excludes any added substances per chapter rules.

Bulk Packed Beet Raw Sugar

Raw beet sugar packed in 50kg bulk bags for industrial import, solid form with <99.5° sucrose, under HTS 1701.12.50.00 other category. Bulk packaging doesn't affect classification as it's not retail-ready per US notes. Primarily for US refineries processing into white sugar.

Refinery-Grade Beet Raw Sugar

Beet raw sugar specifically graded for refinery use, crystals <99.5° sucrose without coloring/flavoring, HTS 1701.12.50.00. Meets solid raw form criteria for further purification. Common import for converting to consumer table sugar.
