Details
Arnitel® ECO is bio-based material with up to 50% reduction in carbon footprint.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for reliable solutions since they yield excellent smoke penetration leading to great taste and sausage structure and high quality
- Arnitel® TPC and Akulon® PA6 allow for sustainable solutions, since they are free of substances of hazardous concerns and thus more environmentally friendly than cellulose casings
