sheep casings
Description
The small intestine of the sheep is processed: it is the most tender and thinnest type of natural casing for sausage and provides the unique crispy bite so typical of a good sausage. In terms of value, it is economically the most important of all natural sausage casings.
Peter Gelhard offers natural sheep casing products of the highest quality for manufacturing cooked sausage, cured sausage and smoked sausage, Viennese sausage, Frankfurter sausage, knockwurst and bockwurst. The main procurement sources for sheep casings are in Australia, China, New Zealand and the Middle East.
Here, the company runs a number of highly efficient sorting and processing plants whose processing methods are subject to the stringent Peter Gelhard quality standards. Immediately after slaughtering, the processing of the sheep casing begins with the cleaning. All natural casings are processed by hand in the work processes.
This ensures continuous top quality. The processing must pass through many production stages before each natural casing meets the product quality that the Gelhard brand stands for worldwide. This means that our customers get the very best quality with each natural sheep casing as our contribution to the success of their own sausage products, in every desired specification.
