Van Hessen is a leading global supplier for sausage makers all over the world. What Van Hessen brings to this traditional handcraft is innovation focused on quality, efficiency and hygiene. This is why Van Hessen is always driven to innovate and improve. And with the Speedpipe we do! The Speedpipe is a food-safer product that ensures improved efficiency and speed, while meeting all quality requirements. Van Hessen makes the Speedpipe available for no additional costs.

Food safe
Foreign Object reduction due to the integrated wing. The filling nozzle forces the wing into the Speedpipe where it remains while the natural casing easily slides over the filling nozzle. When the Speedpipe is removed from the filling nozzle, the wing remains fixed in the Speedpipe itself without any risk of loose parts.

Fully recyclable
The Pipe and wing are made of fully recyclable and of course food grade material. So not only good for the sausages but also good for the planet.

Efficient
Reduced handling resulting in more efficiency and speed. At some applications even loading with one hand is possible. 

Easy to use
It takes only one simple action to slide the Speedpipe over the filling nozzle without removal of stoppers. The filling process has never been this easy or fast.

The next step in food safety
With the traditional pipe there was always a chance of loose objects finding their way into the food.With the Speedpipe this problem is gone! The integrated wing keeps the casings in place. It is possible to slide the pipe over the filling nozzle with just one hand. The filling nozzle forces the wing into the pipe, thus making it possible to create anyone’s favorite high-quality sausage in no time.

From byproduct to premium food.
Around the world, some byproducts from slaughterhouses are considered delicacies. When it comes to pork, for instance, we source stomachs, rectums, cooked chitterlings, uteri, bladders, flower fat, feet and the aorta, while our Belgian sister company DTS and VH Spain are chicken MDM producers. Van Hessen ensures that these meat products reach their intended markets in the right condition. We guarantee quality and traceability by picking up fresh raw materials from slaughterhouses every day, collecting them at central points across the globe where they are processed and frozen immediately. Storage of finished goods occurs according to the highest standards. 

Our food-grade meat products are mainly sourced from our own company-operated gutrooms within slaughterhouses. Thus guaranteeing complete control over every step in the process.

Though we source our raw materials around the globe, our principle of operating locally for local markets ensures high quality standard around the world from beginning to end.

Many of our meat products find their way to the Asian, African, or European market, where they are part of people’s everyday nutrition.

Contributing to life-saving drugs.
Many important, even some life-saving medicines, are derived from animal byproducts and have been used this way for thousands of years. Today, our knowledge of what valuable substances animal organs contain has vastly increased and so have the sophisticated technologies to source them. An expert in extracting valuable substances in the most optimal condition, Van Hessen is continually developing new methods for higher yields, better quality, and new applications. Van Hessen, the only company in the world able to source and valorize mucosa and pancreas into active pharmaceutical ingredients, collaborates closely with its sister company Bioiberica in maintaining a robust supply chain. 

Mucosa, sourced from pork intestines, is used for the production of heparin, an anticoagulant (blood thinner) that saves millions of lives every year.

Cartilage, a soft bone harvested from bovine trachea, is used as raw material for chondroitin. This
drug helps improve joint health, benefiting those who suffer from arthritis. 

Pork pancreases are primarily sourced for their digestive properties and used for the production of medicines that treat various digestive problems.

The world’s best sausages are made with natural casings.
Natural casings provide the best consumer experience. Why? Because they look more fresh, cook better, offer an unbeatable bite, and, most of all, because they contribute to the best possible taste. On top of that, natural casings are part of a circular solution that helps reduce waste and results in better valorization of the raw material.
But getting perfect quality natural casings is no easy task. To ensure consistent high quality casings, Van Hessen strives to be in complete control of the entire supply chain. To achieve this level of integration, Van Hessen is dedicated to training the best professionals in the industry.
As a result Van Hessen’s top quality natural casings product range includes hog, sheep, lamb, goat and beef casings.

Our natural casings bring out the best in every sausage. All sausages stay tender, juicy, and fresh,
with that distinctive mouth-watering ‘snap’.

Thanks to our ownselection plants, management, and employees, we can guarantee a uniform and consistent high-quality product that matches all requirements of our customers.

All operations during production, cleaning, selection, and distribution within theVan Hessen group are in compliance with, or exceed, (inter)national legislation and quality standards.
