Casings for Fish and fish-based products
Excellent quality ready-to-use, fresh and palatable fish gastronomy, the result of a constant search for the balance between flavour, food safety and innovation.
For years, we have been working with customers in the seafood industry, gaining a detailed understanding of the specific requirements associated with the processing and packaging of fish and seafood. Our in-depth knowledge of processing processes enables us to develop sustainable packaging solutions that will help our customers thrive while preserving the natural flavour and nutritional properties of their own products.
Our solutions are ideal for:
- fish carpaccio
- smoked fish
- cooked fish preparations

Edible collagen Film
Edible collagen film is a very thin layer of collagen supplied in rolls of various lengths or in sheets pre-cut to size.
Collagen film can be used:
- with hand-operated , manual applicator systems
- with an automated applicator for faster manufacturing (can be used with any continuous filling machine)
- with standard press-filling machines available on the market
- with press-filling machines for collagen
The film is available in two colours:
- neutral (standard) for traditional products (hams and roast meats packed in netting, including stuffed products, smoked meat and game, and “bresaola”)
- coloured, for use when the colour of the finished product needs to be modified or intensified.
This offers the following benefits:
- the netting can be taken off the product readily and rapidly (no waste, tearing or time wasted)
- less product weight loss (retaining more succulence)
- excellent product presentation (uniform colour and size)
Special single-layer tubular casings
Polyamide materials that are totally impermeable to smoke and steam. . . Generally used for products demanding a cylindrical shape or other format (using special moulds in the latter case), such as:
- in the meat industry: cooked products that do not require smoking (“Lyoner” sausage and variations, pâté, ham cooked in moulds and regenerated, and mortadella)
- for stretched processed cheeses
- for the production of organic and wholemeal food products
- for semi-processed food products, and when a specific product shape is required in general (sliced cooked sausages, meat or other stuffing for pasta manufacturers, processed cheese, stuffing for pasta, maize polenta, gnocchi alla romana, lard etc)
- for industrial use in-house (when the tubular casing is used during production before being removed).
Special multilayer tubular casings
Casings made from special polymers (three or five layers) made up into a permeable or impermeable tubular format. Special tubular casings are available for smoking.
Available in size 50 to size 120, coloured, shirred, clipped or tied to size, in rolls or skeins, with the option of printing in up to 6 colours.
They differ to single layer tubular casings on account of the following specifications:
- shrinking capacity
- superior mechanical resistance and optimum adaptation to the use of machinery
- no weight loss
- maximum conservation of the product even without vacuum packing with the special opaque version
- can be sterilized
- casing peels away perfectly
- glossy casing
They meet all European legal standards for materials coming into contact with foodstuffs.
