Igea in India: A Great Success at the 52nd Dairy Industry Conference in New Delhi. Looking to the Future with Innovation and Solid Partnerships.

Igea's participation in the 52nd edition of the Dairy Industry Conference & Exhibition, held in New Delhi from February 12 to 14, 2026, has concluded with great satisfaction.

A strategic presence in the Indian market, marking another step forward in the company's international expansion journey. At this important showcase for the dairy sector, Igea operated alongside its local distributor, Jupiter Glass Works, strengthening a partnership that proves increasingly essential in interpreting and meeting the needs of one of the most dynamic and promising markets worldwide.

The Indian audience showed particularly strong interest in two key areas of Igea's research. Firstly, attention focused on the Shield range, the bioprotection line that represents a turning point for those focused on Clean and Short Label production. Thanks to selected strains with natural antagonistic properties, Shield guarantees effective antimicrobial action, enabling dairies to reduce additives without compromising the safety and shelf-life of their products.

At the same time, great curiosity was aroused by the new starter solutions for yoghurt and fermented milks. The optimization work carried out by Igea, with the valuable contribution Mediterranea Biotecnologie and Scienzanova, has made it possible to refine starter performance and sensory profiles to faithfully meet the production requirements and specific tastes of the Indian palate, combining local tradition with advanced microbial technology.

"Being present in New Delhi is not just a commercial matter, but a concrete commitment to supporting our distributors and Indian dairy producers," comments Enrico Biraschi CEO of Igea. "Our starters and bioprotection solutions are designed to enhance and add value to the work of dairies, enabling, thanks to the innovative approach we dedicate to product development, high quality productions that are consistent over time and respectful of territorial identities.

We thank Jupiter Glass Works for their synergy and all the professionals we met at this valuable event."

A presence in New Delhi that strengthens Igea's commitment alongside its distribution network: a team effort that places research at the service of increasingly competitive, authentic productions, closely aligned with market expectations.
