AMIFLEX E

Description

The AMIFLEX Е is a multilayer barrier casing intended for the production of cooked sausage and ham products subjected to thermal processing, and then peeled, sliced, and packed before being sold.

Application

Multilayer barrier sausage casing is used for stuffing of unsmoked cooked or scalded sausages and hams which have to be peeled off, sliced and repacked for final use.

Advantages

1. High caliber accuracy of the casing ensures a steady size of the chubs during the molding and after thermal processing along the whole length to guarantee the same size of the slices and the fixed weight of the retail packaging.

2. Preferential longitudinal rupture of the casing ensures its fast and complete peeling off the product in one move.

3. Mechanical strength of the AMIFLEX E casing makes it possible to mold ball-shaped chubs with the use of high-capacity automatic and semi-automatic clippers at high production rates.

4. Low permeability to oxygen and water vapor is ensured by a precisely selected combination of polymers and provides for the following advantages of the AMIFLEX E casing:

   • zero losses during the thermal processing and storage of meat and sausage products
   • microbiological stability of the products during storage
   • retardation of the oxidation processes that cause rancidification of fats and changes in the natural color of the meat product
   • excellent selling appearance (no “wrinkles”) of the finished products throughout the shelf life

5. Physiological safety the AMIFLEX E casing is impervious to microbiological degradation, because the materials used for their production are inert to the action of bacteria and mold fungi. This facilitates storage of the casing and improves the hygienic characteristics of both the casing itself, and of the sausage production.
