Description

The AMITEX Elite-S casing is a glossy multilayer barrier casing designed for the production of pasteurized and sterilized products in casings that are subject to long-term storage.

Application

The casing is intended for the production of pasteurized and sterilized products in casings, subject to long-term storage (cooked sausages and ham products, liver and blood sausages, pates and other products)

Advantages

1. The unique features of the AMITEX Elite-S casing include:
— the use of polymers with low gas permeability, particularly to oxygen (EvOH) in its production;
— high heat resistance (the casing can withstand heat treatment at temperatures up to 125°C).

2. The combination of heat treatment (sterilization) conditions with the barrier properties of the AMITEX Elite-S casing itself allows for products that retain their high consumer qualities (freshness, taste, aroma, and appearance) for a long time.

3. Its mechanical strength allows for loaf forming using high-performance automatic and semi-automatic clippers at high forming speeds, and also allows the casing to withstand the stresses that occur during sterilization, ensuring the product maintains its shape.

4. The high heat resistance of the polymers used in the production of the AMITEX Elite-S casing extends the temperature range of the casing to 125°C. This makes it possible to sterilize meat products.

5. Low oxygen permeability inhibits the oxidation of fats and vitamins and ensures the microbiological stability of long-life products.

6. Low water vapor permeability provides the following advantages of the casing:
— No loss during heat treatment and storage of meat and sausage products;
— Excellent presentation (no wrinkles) of finished products throughout their entire shelf life.

7. Physiological safety: The casing is not subject to microbiological spoilage, as the materials from which it is made are inert to bacteria and mold. This simplifies casing storage and improves the hygienic characteristics of both the casing itself and the sausage production process.

8. The AMITEX Elite-S casing offers a number of significant technical and economic advantages over other packaging (glass and metal jars) used for sterilized products:
— a wide range of calibers, allowing for the production of portioned products of varying weights;
— a wide range of casing colors and the ability to apply markings;
— no welds;
— no internal or external corrosion;
— high thermal properties, minimal packaging weight;
— easy waste disposal and environmental safety;
— easy packaging opening.

Colors

It is possible to produce exclusive colors

Seal

Single-sided and double-sided, single-color, multi-color, or full-color printing using UV-curable inks. Printing is done using a flexographic process, and the inks are resistant to boiling, grease, and mechanical damage.

Shell calibers

35 – 120 mm

Delivery forms

— coils;
— corrugated dolls;
— R2U corrugated dolls (ready-to-use casing).
