Revolutionizing the sugarcane industry.

Every year, 1.9 billion tonnes of sugarcane is grown globally and the vast majority is processed into just one product— sugar.
Tilby Systems is an innovative technology that unlocks the full potential of sugarcane, transforming it into a host of high-value products.
Traditional sugarcane processing methods are inefficient and wasteful.
In conventional mills, whole cane is crushed in order to release the juice which is processed into sugar products.
Sugar and Molasses
The remaining material, called bagasse, is typically burned as low-grade fuel.
Bagasse
Tilby Systems is fundamentally different.
With its unique mechanical process, Tilby Systems efficiently separates the cane stalk into 3 distinct components:
By preserving the structural integrity of the sugarcane stalk, Tilby Systems makes possible a wide range of valuable end-products.

Tilby Technologies is changing the economics of the sugarcane industry.

Profitable
Conventional sugar mills typically generate US$60 gross revenue per tonne of cane. That same tonne of cane processed by Tilby Systems can generate upwards of US$900 depending on the co-product mix and local operating parameters.
Renewable
Sugarcane is one of the world’s fastest growing and most productive crops, ensuring a consistent and sustainable source of raw material.
Adaptable
Tilby Systems can be calibrated to process a variety of feedstocks including sweet sorghum, sunflower, kenaf, and hemp.
Sustainable
Conventional crushing consumes a signicant amount energy yet only 10% of the total cane crop is utilized. With Tilby Systems, 100% of the crop can be used to produce numerous value added co-products.
Diversified
With multiple revenue streams, Tilby Systems offers an economic hedge against fluctuating sugar prices and opens up new market opportunities in bio-based products.
Efficient
Mechanical separation requires less energy than traditional methods which involve high heat or extensive chemical processing. This results in lower carbon emissions and reduced operating costs.
Eco-friendly
Tilby Systems creates viable alternatives to petrochemicals and forest-derived building materials.
Flexible
The modular nature of the system allows for scalability and customization. Depending on the throughput and type of feedstock, value-added processes can be added, removed, or modified.
Bottom Line
Tilby Systems transforms agricultural waste into high-value products, ensuring a circular economy with minimal environmental impact.
