4Protection is the Sacco line of ferments for the protection of products from the development of unwanted microorganisms. 4Protection cultures are made of 100% natural lactic bacteria that help maintain the structural and sensory quality of products during shelf life.

Not only rennet and coagulants. Caglificio Clerici produces and markets a wide range of products useful during all stages of cheese production.

Lactic ferments (more correctly called “lactic bacteria”) are microorganisms that through a catabolic process (fermentation) are able to degrade lactose, the sugar contained in milk and its derivatives, and transform it into lactic acid.

Lactase is a natural enzyme that is produced in the early stages of life in mammals and which is able to split lactose into two monosaccharides (glucose and galactose) and ensure its controlled elimination or reduction.

Yeasts are a group of important micro-organisms for the production of certain dairy products. Their contribution is fundamental to the creation of the correct structure and aroma of specific cheeses or fermented milks.

Probiotic bacteria (from the Greek pro-bios, “in favor of life”) are a specific group of lactic ferments able to have a beneficial action on the whole body starting from the colonization of the intestine.
