What our partners have to say

Our partnership with ICM has been longstanding, but the first major project was the construction of Neomille in Maracaju (MS). From the very beginning, ICM demonstrated a strong commitment to delivering a high-quality plant, going beyond engineering and implementation by training our teams, transferring technology, monitoring performance, and developing continuous improvement plans. ICM is globally recognized as the leading technology provider for corn ethanol plants. Having them as partners gives us access to the most advanced processing technologies, enabling us to achieve world-class yield levels. ICM’s technologies are implemented following well-established testing, which significantly reduces engineering risks. It’s also important to highlight the excellent work done by ICM’s Brazilian team, who oversaw the project with professionalism and dedication, ensuring a successful startup and reaching full milling capacity within the first few days of production.

After a thorough evaluation of the global technologies available in corn processing and ethanol production, ICM emerged as our ideal partner. This strategic choice has proven to be successful through our high-level partnership. ICM’s exceptional engineering support has been crucial in delivering the performance and results expected by our shareholders and investors. We are grateful for ICM’s expertise and commitment and remain confident in the progress of our project.
