Product Overview
Grade 1 on this page is Russian white refined beet sugar on the wider colour band: polarization min 99.5°Z, colour max 150 ICUMSA, moisture max 0.06%, ash max 0.06% and reducing sugar max 0.08%. Solubility is listed as a clear solution. This is not the tighter ICUMSA 45 SKU.
Export format is bulk, 50 kg bags or big-bags, loaded FOB Novorossiysk or CIF to a named discharge port. Parcel size is named in the contract. Buyers are typically food plants, traders and re-packers who accept Grade 1 colour rather than the ICUMSA 45 band.
Lots are SGS inspected (or a named surveyor) against the contractual table. Settlement is escrow against shipping documents. There is no public USD list price on this URL — the desk quotes on enquiry.
Open the ICUMSA 45 page when the buyer needs colour max 45 and polarization min 99.7°Z. Do not treat the two sugar SKUs as interchangeable on the RFQ.

FOB / CFR / CIF Supply
An offer depends on volume, packing, load window and the named port. FOB Novorossiysk is the load-port stem when the buyer nominates the vessel. CFR adds ocean carriage to a named discharge port. CIF also includes cargo insurance for the sea leg.
Discharge, import clearance and inland haulage stay with the buyer unless the contract says otherwise. Firm dollars are confirmed on the Sales Contract.
Inspection and Export Documents
Pre-shipment inspection is by SGS or a named surveyor against the contractual specification, in line with the same desk process as grain: enquiry, quote, sales contract, escrow, then loading. If the certificate does not match, the lot does not load.
Escrow releases against the agreed shipping documents — typically bill of lading, phytosanitary certificate, certificate of origin and the inspection report. See how we work.
