POLYAMIDE AND BARRIER POLYMERS FOR CASING

Synthetic sausage casings crafted from polyamide are frequently encountered. These casings are produced using an extrusion method, wherein nylon is melted, blown, in three bubbles, obtaining a tubular form film. Subsequently, they are cooled and cut precisely to the desired lengths. This type of packaging is used for a wide variety of sausages and processed meat products.

NUREL presents a dedicated selection of Promyde PA6 meticulously tailored for casing purposes, in addition to a novel line of polymers, designed to produce synthetic casing for smocked sausages with different levels of smoke penetration.

Promyde PA6 for synthetic casing

In casing packaging, the material selection is contingent upon the precise requirements of the packaged product. Polyamide, recognized for its robustness, barrier and versatility, is commonly employed, while water soluble polymers such as Enoxite are also required due to their exceptional properties to achieve the required smoke penetration in the smoked sausages production.

Polyamide is extensively employed in the fabrication of synthetic sausage casings, offering several merits, encompassing uniformity, strength, and the capacity to create a shield against external contaminants, all while permitting controlled moisture and gas exchange. Its prevalence extends across the meat processing industry.
