Abstract

The invention relates to a tubular food casing with a textile backing material which is coated on the inside with a layer of regenerated or precipitated cellulose. This casing combines the properties of a textile skin with those of a cellulose fiber skin. Aside from the surface texture for which textile skins are known and prized, it features the water-vapor permeability, oxygen permeability and smoke-component permeability of a cellulose fiber skin. At the same time the casing is impervious to fats. It is used preferably as an artificial sausage casing.
