Materials for casing and smoked casing
Specific PA solutions for three-bubble extrusion
Polyamide is a key material in the production of synthetic casings for sausages and processed meats, thanks to its exceptional strength, barrier properties and versatility.
PROMYDE® PA grades offer consistent shape retention, excellent mechanical strength and a reliable barrier against external contaminants, while also allowing for moisture control and gas transmission.
The PROMYDE® PA6 range demonstrates exceptional performance in three-bubble extrusion processes, ensuring high processability and film uniformity in demanding industrial applications.
These qualities make it a trusted choice in the meat industry.

ENOXITE: PERMEABLE POLYMERS FOR SMOCKED CASING
When it comes to smoked sausages and processed meats, maintaining flavor, appearance, and shelf life is critical. These applications require permeable polymers that allow the passage of smoke components and water vapor, enabling effective aroma and color infusion.
Our solutions—including PVOH-based materials for smoked casings—deliver controlled permeability, ensuring a balance between product preservation and freshness, while enhancing taste and visual appeal.
