Vector Packaging’s plastic casings provide meat, poultry and dairy processors with a solution to end users’ slicing needs and a boost to their bottom line. Vector plastic casings offer better size control, smooth sliceability, higher yields, and longer shelf-life.

Vector’s predictable, balanced shrink provides precise slicing diameters and shape to all products from sausages to luncheon meats.

Applications:
•	Round Shapes
•	Rectangular-molded
•	D-shaped

Advantages:
•	Balanced shrink provides precise slicing diameters and shape to all products whether round, rectangular-molded, or D-shaped
•	Smooth slicing and casing removal
•	Tight square ends and consistent semi-cling adhesion produce higher yields
•	Superior size control
•	Minimal purge
•	Excellent moisture barrier helps to eliminate "cooler shrink"
•	High oxygen barrier - which allows logs to be held before slicing with impermeability to pathogens
•	Lay flat specifications, some as tight as ± 1mm, produce consistent yields when sliced in-plant or at a secondary slicing facility

Equipment Needs:
•	Vacuum stuffing to eliminate air bubbles/pockets
•	Portioner to get consistent weights
•	Double clipper with ability to slack fill and horn vacuum to remove air from slack tail for D-shapes and molded products
•	Horizontal (rack) cooking in a smokehouse with steam cook cycles
