<p>Casing paper is produced by the wet-laying of a web material comprising cellulosic fibres, e.g. abaca fibres, and synthetic fibres, the resultant web material being bonded either with viscose, followed by regeneration of cellulose from the viscose, or with a resin binder or mixture of resin binders. The casing paper may be formed into a tube and impregnated with viscose from which cellulose is thereafter regenerated to form a casing material for the packaging of sausage or other processed meat product or other food products. The inclusion of the synthetic fibres, for example polyamide, polyester or polyolefin fibres, has been found to reduce the variation in wet expansion in the cross direction of the web material.</p> |
