Course of the visit<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The visit starts with a presentation about the extraction and crystallization process of sugar. This introduction to the theoretical concepts takes half an hour and is essential for a better understanding of the process during the visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then follows the actual visit in groups of 15-20 people led by the guide. For two hours we take you through our entire site, in the traces of beets and sugar.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

Beware<\/h3>\n

The Fontenoy sugar factory is committed to its safety, quality, and environmental protection system. Therefore, visitors of the sugar factory are required to strictly follow the instructions given to them.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n

Children aged less than 10 are not allowed on the tour<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n

The itinerary of the tour includes staircases with a total of 200 steps. People suffering from reduced mobility or using wheelchairs will not fully enjoy the guided tour, making the visit significantly less interesting for them.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n

Visitors are required to wear closed shoes with flat heels. Furthermore, loose-fitting clothes or dresses are prohibited. We encourage visitors to wear trousers or shorts.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
