Our sugar factory in Könnern is setting new benchmarks – on many levels. The factory is Pfeifer & Langen’s largest production site in Germany and among our most modern facilities. Every year, we process more than two million tonnes of sugar beets into a broad range of products, including crystal sugar in two purity classes (white sugar and refined sugar) and stock feed. Könnern is our site for superlatives. But the most important standard it sets is in the passion of the 230 men and women who work here. Together, they are shaping the future: with dedication, innovation, and partnership.
In Könnern, we know sweet – and we know smart, too! Beets contain water, and we utilise this in our manufacturing process, allowing us to operate with no additional outside water at all. The sugar factory is already one of the most energy-efficient in Europe. But that is not enough for us. We are currently adapting our entire production to renewable energy sources. A biogas plant to make efficient use of the beet pulp is also being planned.
