Wilmar Sugar Australia Limited has officially confirmed that the Burdekin region will lead the way in launching the 2025 crushing season, with operations at its four local mills, Invicta, Pioneer, Kalamia and Inkerman, set to commence on Tuesday, the 3rd of June 2025.
The Burdekin mills will be among the first in Wilmar’s network to fire up, with production in other regions, including Plane Creek Mill, Proserpine Mill and the Herbert district, scheduled to begin shortly after. The remainder of Wilmar’s mills are expected to be fully operational by the 17th of June.
Preparation is already well underway, with steam trials scheduled as part of Wilmar’s comprehensive pre-season commissioning program. The first of these trials will take place at Inkerman Mill on Monday, the 13th of May, allowing teams to test equipment, ensure safe operations, and fine-tune machinery ahead of the season start.
Wilmar has expressed optimism for a strong and productive season, supported by favourable crop estimates and the early rollout of operational readiness. With just weeks to go, the company is working closely with growers, harvesters, and mill staff to ensure everything is in place for a smooth and successful 2025 crush.
