AMIFLEX-Mini

Description

AMIFLEX-Mini is a multilayer barrier casing. The AMIFLEX-Mini casing is the combination of a multilayer structure and a small caliber, which makes it possible to manufacture small-portion products with a fixed weight (from 25 to 100 g) and an extended shelf life (up to 35 days, for pates – up to 45 days).
AMIFLEX-Mini Ko is a ring-shaped version of the casing.

Application

The AMIFLEX-Mini casing is made can be used for production, transportation, storage and sale of such food products as:

emulsified cooked sausages;
frankfurters and wieners;
spreads, blood and liver sausages;
processed cheeses;
animal cooking fats, margarines, and sour milk products

Benefits

The high heat resistance of the polymers used to make the packaging for frankfurters and wieners significantly extends the temperature range of utilization of the casing in comparison with collagen and cellulose casings.
The high mechanical strength of the packaging for frankfurters and wieners makes it possible to mold the products by using various types of equipment to achieve a high speed of production and overstuffing relative to the nominal caliber. The caliber consistency in the packaging for frankfurters and wieners provides for stable filling on the modern high-capacity frankfurter lines and stuffers with twisting devices.
Physiological safety the AMIFLEX-Mini 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.
Low permeability to oxygen and water vapor (at temperatures 0 ...+6 °С) provides for the following advantageous properties:

the shelf life of sausages in the AMIFLEX-Mini casing is comparable with that of sausages in multilayer barrier casings (up to 60 days);
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 leading to 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.
