- cooked, cooked-smoked sausage products
- can be used to produce uncooked smoked/ dry-cured products, which traditionally are filled into natural casings.
- an edible collagen casing, completely imitating a natural casing in appearance and by organoleptic characteristics. Gives a product a disctinctive knap (or a knack) while cracking to save the taste of a casing non-existence while chewing.
Natur LC is the most recent solution by Viscofan to achieve the superior tenderness of the product while biting.

Natur 15 - 38 mm
