Description

The iColl casing is a matte plastic casing, permeable to smoke, designed for the production of all types of sausages, frankfurters, small sausages, and mini-sausages produced using traditional technologies, including smoking and roasting with smoke, allowing for the production of products with traditional organoleptic characteristics inherent in products in protein and natural casings.

Application

The casing is designed for the production of all types of sausages, mini-sausages, frankfurters, and shpikachki, produced using traditional technologies, including smoking and roasting with smoke.

Advantages

1. Optimal adhesion of iColl casings to various types of minced meat ensures easy spiral peeling of the finished product by the end consumer (A, P). The casing also allows for storage of finished products in the casing (in a garland).

2. High permeability of the casing to smoke and water vapor allows for roasting and smoking, imparting a traditional smoked flavor and aroma. This allows for the production of products with the traditional organoleptic characteristics typical of products in protein and natural casings. It promotes the formation of a dense, coagulated protein crust with a matte surface beneath the casing. This improves the stability of peeling the casing from the finished product without damaging the surface layer of coagulated protein (crust).

3. Expanded product range. iColl casings are available in straight and ring-shaped versions, allowing for an expanded product range due to the variety of product shapes. The iColl ring casing allows for the production of semi-ring-shaped products without the use of expensive natural or protein casings.

4. The high heat resistance of the polymers used in the production of iColl casings significantly expands the temperature range of the casing compared to protein casings.

5. The high mechanical strength of iColl casings allows for product molding on various types of molding equipment, ensuring high production speeds and the ability to overfill relative to the nominal caliber. The consistent caliber of the casing ensures consistent filling on modern high-speed sausage production lines and stuffing machines with a twisting device.

6. Microbiological resistance. The polymers used in the production of iColl casings are inert to bacteria and mold. This improves the hygienic properties of both the casing itself and the finished product. 7. Optimal oxygen and water vapor permeability compared to protein casings at finished product storage temperatures (+2...+6 ºC) provide the following advantages:
— reduced rate of oxidation processes in the finished product;
— improved preservation of the smoked flavor in the finished product throughout the entire shelf life of casing-encased products (in a garland);
— reduced weight loss (≈ 4–5%) during storage (storage of products in a gaseous environment, in vacuum packaging, is recommended);
— reduced syneresis (liquid separation) of the finished product packaged in vacuum packaging (≈ 1.5–2 times).
