About Animal Casings
Animal casings are natural intestinal membranes derived primarily from pigs, sheep, and cattle, serving as essential packaging for sausage production and processed meat manufacturing worldwide. Internationally traded casings are graded by diameter, length, and defect count, with hog casings (32-35mm) dominating the market, followed by sheep casings (20-24mm) and beef rounds (40-45mm). Major producing regions include China, which supplies approximately 60% of global exports, alongside significant production in the European Union, particularly Poland and Germany, and South America. Buyers should verify salting method and salt-to-casing ratio upon receipt, as inconsistent preservation directly impacts shelf life and usability; properly salted casings maintain functionality for 12-18 months when stored at controlled temperatures.
