European Artificial Casing Market 2017 - Identify Opportunities and Challenges

-

The Artificial Casings Market in Europe is mainly segmented by type (collagen casing, cellulose casing, plastic casing, fibrous casing, value added casing, textile casing, and net casing) and by geography (Germany, Italy, France, Spain, U.K., Poland, The Netherlands, Russia, and Rest of Europe).



Collagen casings hold the major share of the European artificial casings market mainly attributed to factors such as low cost of producing sausages in collagen; their standard diameter, strength, and long lengths; and growing acquisitions from leading players to improve the product portfolio of collagen casings. Also, growth in the population, especially in the urban areas which has increased the sausage consumption; and technological advancements in manufacturing of artificial casings further supports the dominance of collagen casings in the global market.

The collagen casing is easy and quick to work with because it is more consistent and stable product than the gut casing, thus achieving what can sometimes be dramatic cost saving – over 50 percent in some cases. Also, another advantage is that collagen casings are immediately ready for use. There is no soaking or other preparation required, for instance, as required with gut casings.  Collagen casings are particularly effective when sausages are filled mechanically with conventional stuffing machines, as the casings are replenished automatically. This again leads to shorter throughput times. Overall, manufacturers can double their production volume compared to when using conventional gut casings.

The key players operating in the European artificial casing market are Viscofan SA, Devro PLC, Selo, Shenguan Holdings (Group) Limited, DAT-Schaub Group, ViskoTeepak, FIBRAN, S.A., Viskase Companies, Inc., Innovia Films Limited, Colpak, Nippi, Inc., FABIOS S.A., Nitta Casings Inc., Kalle GmbH, Oversea Casing Company LLC., Biostar Group, and De Wied International Inc.

Organic agriculture performs multiple functions and it is an important tool for achieving „Green Productivity in agriculture and mitigates the negative impacts of conventional input-intensive agriculture by excluding the use of agrochemical inputs from the production system; minimizing environmental pollution; promoting reuse and recycling of organic farm waste and crop residues; improving biodiversity; and enhancing soil productivity. Organic agriculture and agribusiness also contribute to improve rural livelihoods and sustainable development through generating rural employment opportunities and increasing farm incomes. Organic agriculture is not for more affluent countries alone, but can be applied successfully in other situations. In less developed countries especially, it can contribute to foreign exchange earnings, green productivity, and sustainable socioeconomic development. The organic agriculture demands only organic inputs such as organic fertilizers for the production, wh

Spirulina: The Greatest Super Food On Earth?

-
Image
Spirulina has been used as food for centuries by different populations and rediscovered in recent years. Its impressive protein content and rapid growth in the entirely mineral environment have attracted the attention of both researchers and industrialists alike. As a part of more detailed analysis, a number of features of particular interest from the nutritional standpoint have been demonstrated: a balanced protein composition, the presence of rare essential lipids, and numerous minerals. In 1967, spirulina was established as a “ wonderful future food source ” in the International Association of Applied Microbiology (Sasson, 1997). Further analysis of the nutritional properties of spirulina showed an exceptionally high protein content of around 60–70% of its dry weight. The UNO in the year 1974, during its World Food Conference declared Spirulina “the best food for tomorrow”. The WHO (World Health Organization) has called Spirulina as “the greatest super food on earth” an
