Case Study: Usina Açucareira Guaíra cuts sugarcane fire response time and reduces fires with umgrauemeio's PANTERA

Usina Açucareira Guaira cuts fires by 85% with umgrauemeio

Usina Açucareira Guaíra faced a significant challenge in protecting its sugarcane fields from fires. Its fire brigades took 30 to 40 minutes to reach a fire, and without technology, pinpointing the exact ignition point was impossible. This led to growing burned areas, environmental fines, production losses, and risk to neighboring communities. The company turned to vendor umgrauemeio and its PANTERA system for a solution.

The PANTERA solution from umgrauemeio implemented continuous wind, humidity, and temperature monitoring to anticipate risk. Its AI automatically detected smoke in seconds and used camera triangulation to deliver the fire's exact location. This resulted in a drastically reduced response time of 10 to 15 minutes and an 85% reduction in fires per harvest, benefiting the environment, employee safety, and the local community.
