Igea returns to Sergipe in Brasil for the “Seminário de Negócios”. Bioprotection and innovation in one of the dairy capitals of Brazil.

Igea stops in Nossa Senhora da Glória (SE): on 13 and 14 May, one of the dairy capitals, for the seventh edition of the Seminário de Negócios.
A highly significant event that sees us alongside our distributor for Brazil, Kulturen Fermentos Euro-Latina Ltda.

We will be actively participating with our Sales Director Enrico Biraschi, who will give a technical presentation on bioprotection in dairy production: a key theme for those who, like us, develop advanced biotechnological solutions for the dairy industry, and one that is already attracting particular interest in the country.

During the talk, Biraschi will present our innovative approach to tackling contamination that often affects dairy production, introducing the SHIELD® range. Developed by Igea in close collaboration with the R&D teams of Mediterranea Biotecnologie and Scienzanova, it is a line of protective cultures that improves the shelf-life and microbial safety of dairy products, avoiding the use of chemical additives and meeting the clean label demands of the market.

SHIELD® offers three different formulations, each designed to ensure maximum effectiveness based on different pH levels in cheese-making. Our solutions are particularly effective against yeasts, moulds and Gram-negative bacteria.

“We designed our solutions to enhance the work of dairies, enabling high-quality and consistent production over time. Bioprotection with SHIELD® allows producers to expand their market horizons, embracing clean label principles without compromising safety,” says Enrico Biraschi.

The state of Sergipe is currently the second largest milk producer in the Northeast, and the Alto Sertão region is establishing itself as one of the country’s main production hubs. Being present in the Dairy Capital means bringing innovation directly to where the sector is growing the most.

The event will also be an opportunity for local producers to engage with other leading companies, discovering innovations in industrial equipment, refrigeration, ingredients, laboratory technologies and management tools.

We look forward to seeing you at our stand and at the technical session to show you how bioprotection can become a concrete ally for quality, safety and added value in your production.
